Mousson, ex Wollaston (4 shells, syntypes of Helix argonautula var. canariensis Mousson, 1874 and of ‘ Helix ’ arguineguinensis Seddon & Aparicio, 1998, ZMZ 505021). Description. A detailed description of the shell (Fig. 2 A) is given in Wollaston (1878) or Seddon & Aparicio (1998) and therefore is not repeated here. Genitalia (Fig. 1 F): Right ommatophoran retractor independent of genitalia. Atrium short (0.9 mm), about as long as vagina (0.8 mm) and free oviduct (0.8 mm), the latter about as wide as vagina. Spermoviduct (4.0 mm) with a light touch of dark pigment, albumen gland withish, tongue-shaped (2.8 mm), hermaphroditic duct light-brownish, slightly undulating. Bursa copulatrix complex adhering to spermoviduct, with a long duct (3.2 mm) and an oval bursa (1.1 mm). Penis very short (0.6 mm), inflated, internally with a plug-shaped penial papilla with apical pore; epiphallus (6.2 mm) about 10 times as long as penis, retractor muscle inserting in its distal fifth (in relation to the position of the hermaphroditic gland). Flagellum (2.1 mm), thin, about 1 / 3 the length of epiphallus. Vaginal appendage well developed, with a hook-shaped, broad A 1 section (2.9 mm); A 2 section short (0.4 mm), slightly bent and well muscularized; A 4 section 2.8 mm long and thin, the branched A 5 section (2.8 mm) split into three thin ducts that are about as long as the A 4 section. Internal wall of genital atrium equipped with several rugose, longitudinal pilasters that can be traced into the vagina and the vaginal appendage, in the latter two stronger and several weaker pilasters are discernible. Remarks. The structure of the vaginal appendage of M. arguineguinensis (Fig. 1) corresponds to that observed in other species assigned to the genus (Hesse, 1911; Odhner, 1932; Schileyko & Menkhorst, 1997; Ibáñez et al., 2006). Ibáñez et al. (2006) included three species in Monilearia (Lyrula) Wollaston, 1878 on the basis of a similar shell sculpture consisting of a decussate ornamentation of slightly undulating radial riblets and numerous (sometimes stronger) spiral lines. The shell of M. arguineguinensis (Fig. 2) has a well-developed radial ornamentation consisting of numerous, irregular riblets, but spiral lines are absent. Therefore, M. arguineguinensis is included in the nominate subgenus here. Seddon & Aparicio (1998, p. 19) clearly intended the name ‘ Helix ’ arguineguinensis as a new replacement name for the variety from the Canary Islands introduced by Mousson (1874), i.e. for Helix argonautula var. canariensis (not Helix canariensis Mousson, 1872 or Helix lactea var. canariensis Mousson, 1872). Although Seddon & Aparicion (1998, p. 21) attributed the name ‘ canariensis ’ erroneously to Wollaston (1878), the reference to the combination used by Wollaston (1878), Disculus argonautula var. canariensis (Mousson, 1874), in the synonymy of ‘ H. ’ arguineguinensis makes it clear, which name the authors replaced by the new name. According to the ICZN code Art. 72.7 both nominal taxa have the same name-bearing type despite any contrary designation. Seddon & Aparicio (1998) designated a shell from the Mellvill-Tomlin collection (NMW 1955.158.0 2113, see also Fig. 2 B) as lectotype of ‘ Helix ’ arguineguinensis. However, there are four shells labelled as H. argonautula var. canariensis in the Mousson collection at Zurich (ZMZ 505021, see also Fig. 2 C) which are syntypes of H. argonatula var. canariensis and according to ICZN Art. 72.7 also of ‘ H.’ arguineguinensis. There is no evidence that the specimen from the collection in Cardiff (NMW 1955.158.02113) was known to Mousson when introducing the name H. argonatula var. canariensis and therefore it cannot be regarded as belonging to the syntypes series. Hence, I regard its selection as lectotype as invalid (ICZN Art. 74.2) and only the shells in the Mousson collection at Zurich (ZMZ 505021) have type status.Published as part of Neiber, Marco T., 2015, On the generic placement of the narrow-range endemic ' Helix ' arguineguinensis Seddon & Aparicio, 1998 from Gran Canaria (Canary Islands), pp. 296-300 in Zootaxa 3981 (2) on pages 297-299, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.3981.2.11, http://zenodo.org/record/24198

Sermyla kupaensis Lentge-MAAss & Neiber & Gimnich & Glaubrecht 2021, SP. NOV.
No full textSERMYLA KUPAENSIS SP. NOV. (FIGS 1P–T, 4, 11A, B) Zoobank registration: urn: lsid: zoobank. org:act: 14715EED-3C76-4F47-AD05-9DE6F6F8127D Etymology: For the type locality, the township of Kupa in south-western Sulawesi. Type material: Holotype, Indonesia, Sulawesi, Kupa, stream E of road Makassar-Parepare, 4°7.567´S 119°37.426´E (MZB Gst. 12.191 w); 16 paratypes from the type locality (ZMB 190982); 88 paratypes from the type locality (ZMB 191388 w); 80 paratypes from the type locality (MZB Gst. 12.192 w); five paratypes from the type locality (ZMH 94335 w). Additional material examined: Indonesia: Sulawesi: Makassar, 5°8′ S 119°25′ E (ZMB 210079, 210082). Diagnosis: Shell as in S. riquetii. Veliger larvae (> 1000) are released from the subhaemocoelic brood pouch of the female. Description Shell (Fig. 1P–T): The shell of S. kupaensis cannot be distinguished from that of S. riquetii. Reproduction: Female S. kupaensis individuals were found to contain only veliger larvae (> 1000) in their brood pouches, i.e. the species has an ovoviviparous reproductive strategy. Juvenile shell (Fig. 5B): Since we did not observe any shelled juveniles in the brood pouch, we display the image of a veliger larvae with an already clearly visible operculum. We are not able to make any further statements concerning the juvenile shell of S. kupaensis. Radula (Fig. 11A, B): Typical, as in other Thiaridae (see: Glaubrecht et al., 2009). Rachidian with a subtriangular central denticle with broadly rounded tip and three smaller denticles on either side of central denticle, also triangular in shape with a rounded tip. Central denticles of lateralia broader and rounder than seen in other thiarids, flanked by two relatively large denticles forming a pronounced wing-shaped plate on the inner side projecting towards the central teeth. Marginal teeth with six to seven denticles. Ecology: This species lives in water bodies above tidal influence, although empty shells may be washed downstream. Near Kupa it was found exclusively at elevations of several dozen metres above the sea level on an elevated plateau with muddy pools of stagnant water adjacent to the river course, but not in the running stream itself. The species seems to prefer these pools with stagnant water over running water, apparently due to the richer muddy substrate it lives in and feeds from. Distribution: It is known only from the type locality. Shells found in Makassar further south on Sulawesi along the same coast line are probably also attributable to this species. Remarks Shells of S. kupaensis cannot be distinguished from S. riquetii but are, on average, slightly larger than samples from Thailand, Vietnam and Bali, for which an euviviparous reproductive strategy could be confirmed here. The different reproductive strategy, i.e. ovoviviparity, and the divergent mitochondrial haplotypes, suggest that the specimens from Sulawesi represent a distinct evolutionary lineage. Specimens of S. carbonata from Australia, which has a euviviparous reproductive strategy, usually have a higher spire than S. kupaensis. Moreover, some populations of S. carbonata can readily be distinguished by their weaker shell sculpture.Published as part of Lentge-MAAss, Nora, Neiber, Marco T., Gimnich, France & Glaubrecht, Matthias, 2021, Evolutionary systematics of the viviparous gastropod Sermyla (Gastropoda: Cerithioidea: Thiaridae), with the description of a new species, pp. 736-762 in Zoological Journal of the Linnean Society 192 (3) on pages 753-754, DOI: 10.1093/zoolinnean/zlaa120, http://zenodo.org/record/701735
