Biodiversidad de moluscos chilenos : base de datos taxonomica y distribucional

Chilean mollusks biodiversity : taxonomic and distributional data base

  • Se presenta una base de datos taxonómica y distribucional de los moluscos marinos, telTestres y dulceacuícolas de Chile continental e insular. Se ha descrito para Chile un total de 1.288 especies, incluidas en 236 familias. Estas especies representan alrededor del 1,8% de la fauna mundial conocida de moluscos recientes (en total unas 70.000 especies). Los gmpos más diversificados son Gastropoda (882 especies) y Bivalvia (233 especies). Del total, 1.070 son marinas, 132 terrestres y 83 de ambientes dulceacuiolas. Del total de especies, 13 son introducidas (terrestres: Milax gagates, Demceras laeve, D. reticulatum, Limax (Lehmannia) valentianus, L. (Limax)flavus, L. (L.) maximus, Oxychilus (Oxychilus) cellarius, O. (Ortizius) alliarius and Helix (Cryptomphalus) aspersa: marinas: Crassostrea gigas, Pecten mllximus, Haliotis rufescens y H. mimus) y 49 poseen importancia económica. Aun cuando las primeras referencias sobre moluscos chilenos datan de comienzos del siglo XVIII, se los conoce principalmente a través de los resultados de las expediciones oceanográficas de fines del siglo XIX y principios de éste.
  • A taxonomic and distributional database of the marine and non marine mollusks of continental and insular Chile is presented. A total of 1,288 species has been described, included in 236 families. These species represent roughly 1,8% of the known world fauna of living mollusks (some 70,000 species). The most diversitied groups are Gastropoda (882 species) and Bivalvia (233 species). Of the total of species, 1,070 are marine, 132 terrestrial and 83 of freshwater environments. Of the total of species, 13 are introduced species (telTcstrial species: Milax gagates, Deroceras laeve, D. reticulatum, Limax (Lehmannia) valentianus, L. (Limax)flavus, L. (L.) maximus, Oxychilus (Oxychilus) cellarius, O. (Olzius) alliarius and Helix (Cryptomphalus) aspersa: marine species: Crassostrea gigas, Pecten maxim us, Haliotis rufescens and H. mimus), and 49 of economic importance. Although references date back to the early 18th Century, Chilean mollusks are known mainly through reports of oceanographic expeditions of the tum of the 20th Century.
