Key words: Mollusca; Cancellariacea; taxonomy; distribution; Madeira; Morocco. Cancellaria minima Reeve, 1856, is redescribed after three syntypes and 59 shells recently col- lected near Madeira and off Morocco. The few literature data concerning this poorly known spe- cies are summarized. Its range appears to be situated between 27° and 37°N and 5° and 17°W, as far as known mainly between 78 and 680 m depth. A. Verhecken, Ed. Arsenstraat 47, B-2510 Mortsel, Belgium. INTRODUCTION Cancellaria minima Reeve, 1856, is a poorly known species from off Madei- ra and the Atlantic coast of the southern Iberian peninsula. It was described (Reeve, 1856: species 77) after specimens of Cuming's collection, from an un- known locality. The syntypes are kept in the British Museum (Natural History [= BM], no. 1968410; although the label mentions four specimens, only three shells are present. Monterosato (1878: 97, note 2), for the first time, gave a locality for C. mi- nima, referring to "C. minima H. Adams, delle Canarie". Jeffreys (1885: 49), reporting on the material of the "Porcupine"-expeditions, mentioned five spe- cimens from off the Gulf of Cadiz; he also referred to specimens found at Madeira, Gibraltar and the Canary Islands by McAndrew.

Abstract: Peru is an ecologically diverse country, with 84 life zones in the Holdridge system and 18 ecological regions (including two marine). 1910 molluscan species have been recorded. The highest number corresponds to the sea: 570 gastropods, 370 bivalves, 36 cephalopods, 34 polyplacoforans, 3 monoplacophorans, 3 scaphopods and 2 aplacophorans (total 1018 species). The most diverse families are Veneridae (57spp.), Muricidae (47spp.), Collumbellidae (40 spp.) and Tellinidae (37 spp.). Biogeographically, 56 % of marine species are Panamic, 11 % Peruvian and the rest occurs in both provinces; 73 marine species are endemic to Peru. Land molluscs include 763 species, 2.54 % of the global estimate and 38 % of the South American esti- mate. The most biodiverse families are Bulimulidae with 424 spp., Clausiliidae with 75 spp. and Systrophiidae with 55 spp. In contrast, only 129 freshwater species have been reported, 35 endemics (mainly hydrobiids with 14 spp. The paper includes an overview of biogeography, ecology, use, history of research efforts and conser- vation; as well as indication of areas and species that are in greater need of study.

    Biodiversity Journal , 2016, 7 (3): 319–324 On some Pliocene Cancellaridae (Mollusca Gastropoda) from the Mediterranean Basin with description of a new species M. Mauro Brunetti Via 28 Settembre 1944 n. 2, 40036 Rioveggio, Bologna, Italy; e-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT During the study on Pliocene Mediterranean malacofauna the author found the presence of a new species of the genus Sveltia Jousseaume, 1887 called S. confusa n. sp. The new species is present both in Zanclean sediments of Southern Spain (Guadalquivir basin and Estepona), and in Pliocenic sediments of Southern Tuscany. This species had been previously discussed and figured by various authors as Sveltia varicosa (Brocchi, 1814). During the research were also found some specimens similar to Ventrilia imbricata (Hörnes, 1856), a taxon which was already described for the Austrian Miocene. In this study the taxonomic position of V. im- bricata , along with its presence in Pliocenic sediments and its relashionships with Scalptia etrusca Brunetti, Della Bella, Forli et Vecchi, 2008, are clarified.

Une révision complète de sa collection de Cancellariidae est présentée ici (environ 80 spé- cimens appartenant à cette famille sont recensés). Les localités de provenance de chaque espèce sont discutées et les répartitions stratigraphiques en sont précisées. Un essai d’attribution générique est proposé et discuté pour chaque taxon. Nous confirmons la validité du genre Gulia Jousseaume, 1887 en complétant sa diagnose et en précisant ses différences avec Ventrilia Jousseaume, 1887. Sur les 32 figures publiées par Grateloup en 1847, trois (peut-être quatre) spécimens figurés n’ont pu être identifiés dans la collection. Au total, un holotype par monotypie a été recensé et nous avons retrouvé 16 spécimens désignés (ici ou précédemment) comme lectotypes de 20 taxons disponibles du niveau espèce ou sous-espèce (e.g., « variétés » ayant rang sub- spécifique), créés par l’auteur ou par des auteurs subséquents ; tous sont fi- gurés ici.

Simone Museu de Zoologia Universidade de São Paulo DOI: https://doi.org/10.11606/issn.2176-7793.v42i4p161-323 ABSTRACT The systematics, classification and phylogeny of the Caenogastropoda are revised based on an analysis of the morphology of representatives of all branches. The basis of this work is the detailed examination of the morphology of 305 species, most of which are reported on in detail elsewhere. Representatives of most caenogastropod families were included (comprising 270 species), and 35 outgroup taxa. A phylogenetic analysis based upon 676 morphological characters, with 2291 states (1915 of which are apomorphic states), is presented. The characters comprise every organ system and many are discussed in detail. The polarization is based on a pool of non-caenogastropods, comprising 27 representatives of Heterobranchia, Neritimorpha, Vetigastropoda, Cocculiniformia and Patellogastropoda. Additionally, eight representatives of other classes are also included. The root is based on the representative of Polyplacophora. A few characters were included in order to organize the outgroups, to find the position of Caenogastropoda among them, and to find the synapomorphies of Caenogastropoda. A strict consensus cladogram of the 48 most parsimonious trees (Fig. 20; length of 3036, CI = 51 and RI = 94) is presented, a synopsis of which is: ((((((Cyclophoroidea2 (Ampullarioidea5 (Viviparoidea15 (Cerithioidea19 (Rissooidea41 (Stromboidea47 (Calyptraeoidea67 (Naticoidea97 (Cypraeoidea118 (Tonnoidea149 (Conoidea179 (Cancellarioidea222 – Muricoidea212)))))))))))) HeterobranchiaV) NeritimorphaU) VetigastropodaL) CocculiniformiaJ) Patellogastropoda) (superscripts indicating the nodes at Fig.

Middle Miocene (Badenian) gastropods from Korytnica, Poland; Part V, Addenda et Corrigenda ad Prosobranchia. Acta Geologica Polonica, 56 (2), 177-220. Warszawa. This report is the fifth part of the monograph of the rich assemblage of gastropods occurring in the so-called Pleurotoma Clays of Middle Miocene (Badenian) age, exposed in the environs of Korytnica in the Holy Cross Mountains, Central Poland. Besides 73 species, described earlier, the report contains descriptions of 52 species omitted from the earlier parts; of which, 50 were not recorded previously from Korytnica. Five species are established as new: Cocculina (Dallia) unica sp.nov., Turritella (Peyrotia) circumcisa sp.nov., Caecum korytnicense sp.nov., Morula valdemari sp.nov., and Ocinebrina recognita sp.nov. A new name, Megalomphalus palazzii nom.nov. is proposed for Narica depressa BOETTGER, 1907 [=Megalomphalus depressus (BOETTGER, 1907)], which is a homonym of Megalomphalus depressus (SEGUENZA, 1876). Key words: Prosobranch gastropods, Middle Miocene, Korytnica.
