Of these ESTs, we have identified four partial fragments of N. samarangae cytochrome oxydase I (NsCO-I) gene which lead to obtain an 852 bp partial cDNA. Since NsCO-I is one of the best-known molecular phylogenetic markers, we have attempted to conduct comparative in silico analysis by using the NsCO-I gene. The combined results from BLAST analyses, multiple sequence alignment and molecular phylogenetic study of NsCO-I cDNA indicate that N. samarangae has similarity to three land snails such as Elona quimperiana, Euhadra herklotsi and Euhadra idzumonis.

ABSTRACT. Amphidromus cognatus Fuiton, 1907, described from a single specimen without locality data, is here recorded from several places north of Darwin in the Northern Territory. This is the first record from Australia of this South-east Asian to Timor genus of arboreal snails. Dissections of the genotype, Amphidromus perversus (Linne, 1758) from Bali and A. poeci/ochrousjaecke/i Laidlaw, 1954, from Flores, Indonesia, provide comparative data on genital and radular structures of A. cognatus. There are easily observable species differences in the ter­ minal genitalia, although shell variation is great and confusing. SOLEM, A. 1983.

  • Gastropoda Cyclophoridae
    BASTERIA, 63: 139-163, 1999 Notes on the non-marine molluscs of the island of Borneo 9. The and genera Cyclophorus, Leptopoma , Craspedotropis (Gastropoda Prosobranchia: Cyclophoridae) J.J. Vermeulen Nationaal Natuurhistorisch Museum, P.O. Box 9517, NL 2300 RA Leiden, The Netherlands The species of the generaCyclophorus,Leptopoma, and Craspedotropis (Cyclophoridae) occurring is from the on Borneo are revised. The genus Craspedotropis recorded Borneo for first time, including two new species (C. juvenilis and C. andrei), and one species previously included in Jerdonia (C. borneensis). Key words: Gastropoda, Prosobranchia, Cyclophoridae, Cyclophorus, Leptopoma, Craspedotropis, taxonomy, Malaysia, Indonesia, Borneo. INTRODUCTION The revision of the largest family of Bornean land snails, the Diplommatinidae, being completed in the previous instalment of the series (Vermeulen, 1996), the author has started a revision of the second largest family occurring on Borneo, the Cyclophoridae. of The first results are presented in this paper. It provides a revision the cyclophorid 1810 1847 and genera Cyclophorus Montfort, (4 taxa), Leptopoma Pfeiffer, (6 taxa), Craspe- dotropis Blanford, 1864 (3 taxa). The first two include species with large or conspicuously coloured shells that the first be collected almost were among to on Borneo, now two centuries ago. They were also among the first to be described. Unfortunately, the descriptions and illustrations of these early names are often barely accurate enough to recognize the species, and, moreover, in some cases the type material has to be pre- accessible the author. Yet it is that the sumed lost, or was not to expected synonyms listed below species such as Cyclophorus perdix borneensis (Metcalfe, 1851),Leptopoma undatum L.

During the years i960 to 1964 a major reorganization of the molluscan collection of the Department of Living Invertebrates of the American Museum of Natural History was undertaken under the auspices of the National Science Foundation. The valuable work done in this period indicated the desirability of preparing a catalog of the Recent mollus¬ can .jjucxiuuiis held by the museum. While most of the type specimens had been separated from the main collection for a number of years, an attempt was made to complete this segregation. Many specimens not previously recognized as types were transferred to the type repository and this paper is a preliminary attempt to catalog and evaluate the specimens now held separately in this repository. Much of the museum's collection consists of historically important material from old collections in which the identification of type specimens is often difficult and uncertain. The concept and importance of a type was sometimes improperly understood by early collectors and misconceptions later arose from their incorrect and inadequate labels.
