Two new species and a new subgenus of Lucinidae (Mollusca: Bivalvia), with notes on certain aspects of lucinid phylogeny
- J. Britton
- Biology
- 1972
The shell morphology of Bellucina is demonstrated to be sufficiently distinct from that of species such as Parvilucina amiantus to justify the establishment of a new subgenus, Radiolucina, for the latter, and several additional aspects of lucinid phylogeny are considered.

- J. Britton, G. Kroh, C. Golightly
- Environmental Science
- 1 April 1982
The terrestrial crabs Gecarcinus ruricola and G. lateralis are sympatrically distributed in many areas of the Caribbean and shows an increase in mean size from eastern to western localities, but growth in both species is allometric.

- 18 April 1977
From September, 1973, through October, 1974, 397 fish representing 9 species and 3 families were collected from Eagle Mountain Lake, Tarrant-Wise Counties, Texas, in an attempt to determine the macroparasites of three families (Centrarchidae, Icta1).
The origins of the coastal and marine flora and fauna of the Azores
- B. Morton, J. Britton
- Environmental Science
- 2000
The Azores Archipelago is geologically young, and the nine islands are from 8 million (Santa Maria) yr old. Evidence of endemism among the Azorean marine and maritime biota is sparse and clearly…
Food choice, detection, time spent feeding, and consumption by two species of subtidal Nassariidae from Monterey Bay, California

Shells of small (< 7 mm) Littorina striata are frequently nodulose, but shells of larger individuals are striate. Nodulose L. striata dominated the littoral fringe of a black basalt Azorean shore…
