Title:Feeding rates of Littoraria irrorata (marsh periwinkle snails) on Spartina alterniflora and Avicennia germinans (black mangrove) plant matter, and physiological conditions of Littoraria and Uca (fiddler crabs) in response to increase Avicennia exposure due to mangrove encroachment, 2020-2021
Alternate Identifier:DOI PLACE HOLDER
Abstract:

Mangrove encroachment is shifting the food sources available to basal consumers in Gulf of Mexico salt marshes, so we sought to determine how two important basal consumers will respond to mangroves as a food source. We collected Littoraria irrorata and leaves of Spartina alterniflora, and Avicennia germinans from marshes in Galveston, Texas in summer of 2020 for a series of food preference and food quality studies. Additionally, we compared the physiological conditions of Littoraria irrorata and Uca rapax individuals collected from manipulated sites with varying levels of mangrove cover in Port Aransas, Texas in late 2020 and early 2021. These studies yielded results on the behavioral and physiological responses of basal consumers to mangrove plant matter as a food source.

Methods and protocols used in the collection of this data package
Description:

Littoraria feeding preference: Littoraria were collected from marshes on Galveston Island and three snails each were placed in 20 specimen cups with 10 mL of 20 ppt salinity water. Live Spartina leaves, standing dead Spartina stems, and live and dead Avicennia leaves were collected at the same time as the snails. Plants were rinsed with distilled water, then one leaf of each type (Spartina leaves were cut to 4 cm long sections) was photographed and placed in each specimen cup. Snails were allowed to feed freely for two weeks with a water change halfway through. Leaves were photographed again at the end of two weeks, and area loss from feeding was calculated as the change in area between the before and after photos, as measured in ImageJ.

Littoraria food quality: Littoraria were collected from marshes on Galveston Island and placed in one of six tanks (20-30 snails per tank). Three tanks were assigned to an Avicennia diet and the other three were assigned to a Spartina diet. Each diet consisted of both live and dead leaves from the source plant. Littoraria were kept on their assigned diet for 60 days with weekly water changes. At the end of 60 days, Littoraria were frozen in the lab. Each individual’s shell length across the longest point was measured, then body tissue was dissected out of shells, rinsed with distilled water, blotted dry, and weighed to obtain the wet weight. Body tissue was then dried in a 60°C oven for 48 hours and re-weighed to obtain the dry weight. Dry-weight density was calculated as the ratio of the dry to wet weight for each snail.

Field collected consumers: Littoraria and Uca were collected from experimentally manipulated plots in Port Aransas, Texas with varying levels of mangrove cover (Guo et al., 2017, Coastal regime shifts: Rapid responses of coastal wetlands to changes in mangrove cover, Ecology). Ten Littoraria and five Uca were collected from three low mangrove cover (0%, 11%, 22%) and three high mangrove cover (77%, 88%, 100%) plots. Additional Littoraria were collected from two nearby unmanipulated survey sites, one with mangroves present and one with mangroves absent. All consumers were frozen until return to the lab. Littoraria were processed in the same way as those from the food quality experiment to determine the shell length and dry weight density. Uca were weighed, then dissected to obtain the hepatopancreas. The hepatopancreas was then weighed to calculate the hepatosomatic index, which is a ratio of the hepatopancreas weight to the body weight.

Stable isotope data: Ten Littoraria from the lab food quality (five from each diet) and twelve field collected Littoraria (two from each study plot) were analyzed for stable isotopes. The muscular foot was dissected from each individual, rinsed with distilled water, and dried in a 60°C oven for 48 hours. Tissue was then ground into a fine powder and sent to the UC Davis stable isotope laboratory for analysis of δ13C and δ15N isotopes.
