Substrate-controlled naticid gastropod drilling predation on recent barnacles from Chandipur, India and its Palaeontological implications
TLDR
In this paper, the authors reported drilling predation on acorn barnacles by gastropods from Chandipur, eastern India, and found that the aspects of predation have been largely limited to molluscs.Abstract:
The study of drilling predation has been largely limited to molluscs. Herein, we report drilling predation on Recent acorn barnacles by gastropods from Chandipur, eastern India. The aspects of pred...read more

Paleoecology of naticid–molluscan prey interaction during the Late Jurassic (Oxfordian) in Kutch, India: evolutionary implications
TL;DR: It is suggested that both turritellines and naticid evolved during the Jurassic, and the prey–predator interaction between them was established shortly thereafter, and among bivalves, corbulids also became important prey of naticids in the same spatiotemporal framework.

Inferring octopodoid and gastropod behavior from their Plio-Pleistocene cowrie prey (Gastropoda: Cypraeidae)
TL;DR: In this paper, a meta-analysis showed that octopodoids produce significantly more drill holes per drilled molluscan shell than do gastropod drillers, and that most of the drill holes are found in the ventral left-posterior and ventral-left-middle shell regions.

Diversity of Indian Barnacles in Marine Provinces and Ecoregions of the Indian Ocean
TL;DR: The first completed and taxonomically validated literature review on the biodiversity of barnacles (Cirripedia) in India is presented in this paper, where a total of 155 species belonging to 75 genera, 19 families were recorded in India.

Barnacle encrustation on molluscan prey offers associational resistance against drilling predation
TL;DR: The results show that the prey with epibionts are significantly less likely to be drilled when the predator has sufficient choice of prey, consistent with the tenets of the associational resistance.

Record of intense predatory drilling from Upper Jurassic bivalves of Kutch, India: Implications for the history of biotic interaction
Subhendu Bardhan,Devapriya Chattopadhyay,Subhronil Mondal,Shiladri S. Das,Sumanta Mallick,Arindam Roy,Piyali Chanda +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors reported 148 drilled bivalve specimens of a single species from the Upper Jurassic horizon in western India, the highest number for any taxon ever recorded since Precambrian to Cretaceous.

A comparison of analyses of drilling predation on fossil bivalves: Bulk- vs. taxon-specific sampling and the role of collector experience
TL;DR: Taxon-specific sampling has been considered to yield less robust predation-related data than bulk sampling as mentioned in this paper, and has been used in many studies of fossil predator-prey interactions.

Naticid drilling predation on gastropod assemblages across the K–T boundary in Rajahmundry, India: New evidence for escalation hypothesis
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a new dataset of naticid drilling predations, involving 31,929 gastropod specimens, from the latest Maastrichtian Infratrappean bed in Rajahmundry, southern India.

Drill hole convergence and a quantitative analysis of drill holes in mollusks and brachiopods from the Triassic of Italy and Poland
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present quantitative evidence of drilling from the Late Triassic (Carnian) Cassian Formation of Italy and the Middle Triassic Lower Muschelkalk of Poland, documenting the first drill holes in Triassic brachiopods.
