    • New species of Miradiscops (Gastropoda: Scolodontidae) from Martinique 

      Ravalo, Lorenzo G. O.; Gargominy, Olivier; Salvador, Rodrigo Brincalepe (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel, 2023-08-02)
      Only 17 endemic land snail species are known so far on the Lesser Antillean island of Martinique, most of which are macrogastropods that are easily visible, and thus, easily collectable. On the other hand, species of microgastropods remain undersampled and overlooked. Based on recently collected shells from Mount Vauclin, we describe a new species of Scolodontidae, Miradiscops madinina sp. nov. from ...

    • Phylogenetic position of Canaridiscus and reestablishment of Gonyodiscus (Gastropoda, Discidae)

Its relationship to European Discus species and other members of the family Discidae is unclear and its status as a distinct genus remains tentative. In the present study we include a species of Canaridiscus, ...

    • The rapid spread of the girdled snail Hygromia cinctella in New Zealand (Gastropoda: Helicoidea)

      The girdled snail Hygromia cinctella originates from southern Europe but has been introduced to countries in northern Europe and, more recently, to Aotearoa New Zealand. In the latter country, the girdled snail was first noted in 2015 in Wellington, but it has since spread to other regions of the North Island. We report here the rapid spread of this exotic species in New Zealand and record its ...
