Resumo(s)
Foram realizadas investigações preliminares para avaliar o significado da flora de algas marinhas características das conchas de Patella spp. («lapas») das ilhas do Faial e Pico, Açores. A flora de algas (20 espécies) encontrada nas conchas distribui-se por três grupos distintos:
(1) formas aderentes-procumbentes, (2) formas calcárias e (3) formas carnudas. Há indicações de que existem afinidades para um substrato calcário num ou mais grupos.
ABSTRACT: A preliminary investigation to evaluate the significance of a unique, marine algal flora on the shells Patella spp. was conducted on representative Patella specimen flow the Islands of Faial and Pico, Azores. The algal flora (20 species) found on the shells formed three distinct algal groupings: (1) adherent-prostrate forms, (2) calcareous forms and (3) fleshy forms. Indications are that a calcium substrate affinity exists for one or more of these groups.
