The Helicoidea is one of the most diverse superfamilies of terrestrial land snails. In this study
we present a molecular phylogeny of the western Palaearctic Helicoidea obtained by means …

Species discovery and validation methods were used to delimit the species of a cryptic
species complex. Species boundaries were inferred from multiple lines of evidence arising …

Chromodoris is a genus of colourful nudibranchs that feed on sponges and is found across
the Indo-Pacific. While this was once the most diverse chromodorid genus, recent work has …

Despite the important roles of freshwater gastropods in aquatic ecosystems, the taxonomic
status of many taxa is unclear, which is compounded by a lack of information on species …

Radix spp. are intermediate host snails for digenean parasites of medical and veterinary
importance. Within this genus, species differentiation using shell and internal organ …

Abstract The Iberian Peninsula constitutes a diversity hotspot with a high number of
endemisms, where the land snail genus Iberus is likely the best example. Despite this, its …

Populations of rock‐dwelling snails are often isolated from each other due to outcrops of
suitable rock forming islands separated by uninhabitable habitats. By chance, some snail …

Pulmonate snails have remarkably high levels of mtDNA polymorphism within species and
divergence between species, making them an interesting group for the study of mutation and …

Aim We infer the evolutionary history of the land snail genus Allognathus from a molecular
phylogeny. An approximate temporal framework for its colonization of the Balearic Islands …

The systematics and biogeographical history of the Eastern Mediterranean and
Macaronesian land snail tribe Allognathini (Helicidae: Helicinae) is investigated based on …
