III IV Short chronicle of UM-Congresses WELCOME ADDRESS UNITAS MALACOLOGICA was born on 21 September, 1962 at the final plenary meeting of the first European Malacological Congress in London. Though the idea of an European malacological organisation dates back to Ladies and Gentlemen, it is a great honour and pleasure to welcome 1935, it was not until 1959, at the 25th Anniversary of the Malacological you all here in Wien/Vienna in the name of the Unitas Malacologica, of the Society in Amsterdam, that a group of distinguished malacologists from various European countries formulated the ides that there should be a common American Malacological Society and of the Friedrich Held-Gesellschaft. I European malacological meeting. On the 8th November in the following year hope your participation in this World Congress of Malacology will meet your (1960), a committe of six British scientists began to organise and prepared the scientific expectations and will enlarge personal contacts of interest. May the first European Malacological Congress, to be held in London at the British Museum, 17-21 September 1962. Even before the start of that Comgress lectures, the posters, the discussions and not at least the individual (which had 125 participants from 20 countries), the suggestion for the conversations contribute to a stimulating meeting. In this sense I wish you all formation of an European Malacological Union was being discussed. The idea took more concrete form by the formation of a small committee convened to a successful Congress and a pleasant stay in Wien/Vienna. draw up a set of proposals and an outline constitution. Although this draft constitution was only in English (and not also in French and German, the two L. SALVINI-PLAWEN other official languages of Congress), this draft was accepted by an President of UM overwhelming majority of the plenum in the final meeting and the UNITAS MALACOLOGICA EUROPAEA had been born. Acceptance of the Constitution of the Union was followed by the election ********** of a council comprising a President, Vice-President, Secretary, Treasurer, an additional member and two auditors) and the more precise elaboration of rules. These included rules concerning membership, the significance of CONTENTS General Assemblies, the election and duties of the Council, etc. It was proposed that Congresses should be organised, if possible, every three years and that This book contains the abtracts of all contributions (lectures within symposia, UNITAS matters (rules and congresses) could be issued in the three official languages English, French and German.

All abstracts are arranged alphabetically At subsequent General Assemblies, several rule changes were approved. In according to the name of the (first) author. 1977 (Amsterdam) the Union was renamed UNITAS MALACOLOGICA (losing "Europaea"). The number of council members was fixed at nine The Editors members (President, Vice-President, Secretary, Treasurer; two retained councilors and two newly elected councilors; and the retiring President as ex- *** officio member); in 2001 (Vienna) it is proposed to restrict the number to eight members (the Vice-President to be the retiring President). Special announcement: In 1989 (Tübingen), the official language of UNITAS MALACOLOGICA was restricted to English (abandoning French and German) following the vote The organising Institut für Zoologie houses its own scientific, in part of non-English speaking members of 63 against 17. historical collection (dry and wet) through all the animal kingdom, as well as Following earlier discussions in 1993 (Siena), in 1995 (Vigo) it was decided glass and wax models.

  • New Anatomical Data on the Iberian Endemic Atenia Quadrasi (Hidalgo, 1885) (Pulmonata, Helicodontidae)
    JOURNAL OF CONCHOLOGY (2006), VOL.39, NO.1 55 NEW ANATOMICAL DATA ON THE IBERIAN ENDEMIC ATENIA QUADRASI (HIDALGO, 1885) (PULMONATA, HELICODONTIDAE) ALBERTO MARTÍNEZ-ORTÍ1 1 Museu Valencià d’Història Natural. Passeig de la Petxina, 15. E-46008 Valencia (Spain) Abstract Living Atenia quadrasi (Hidalgo, 1855) were collected from Pego (Alicante) giving new data about the repro- ductive system, shell, radula and jaw. This data suggests that the genus Atenia Gittenberger, 1968 should be placed in the Subfamily Lindholmiolinae Schileyko, 1978 within the Family Helicodontidae Kobelt, 1904. The small range of this species and the threat to the habitat both suggest that A. quadrasi should be considered threatened. Key words Atenia quadrasi, Helicodontidae, Lindholmiolinae, systematic position, Iberian Peninsula.

  • Molluscs of the Dürrenstein Wilderness Area
    Molluscs of the Dürrenstein Wilderness Area S a b i n e F ISCHER & M i c h a e l D UDA Abstract: Research in the Dürrenstein Wilderness Area (DWA) in the southwest of Lower Austria is mainly concerned with the inventory of flora, fauna and habitats, interdisciplinary monitoring and studies on ecological disturbances and process dynamics. During a four-year qualitative study of non-marine molluscs, 96 sites within the DWA and nearby nature reserves were sampled in cooperation with the “Alpine Land Snails Working Group” located at the Natural History Museum of Vienna. Altogether, 84 taxa were recorded (72 land snails, 12 water snails and mussels) including four endemics and seven species listed in the Austrian Red List of Molluscs. A reference collection (empty shells) of molluscs, which is stored at the DWA administration, was created. This project was the first systematic survey of mollusc fauna in the DWA. Further sampling might provide additional information in the future, particularly for Hydrobiidae in springs and caves, where detailed analyses (e.g. anatomical and genetic) are needed. Key words: Wilderness Dürrenstein, Primeval forest, Benign neglect, Non-intervention management, Mollusca, Snails, Alpine endemics. Introduction manifold species living in the wilderness area – many of them “refugees”, whose natural habitats have almost In concordance with the IUCN guidelines, research is disappeared in today’s over-cultivated landscape. mandatory for category I wilderness areas.

  • The Assimineidae of the Atlantic-Mediterranean Seashores
    B72(4-6)_totaal-backup_corr:Basteria-basis.qxd 15-9-2008 10:35 Pagina 165 BASTERIA, 72: 165-181, 2008 The Assimineidae of the Atlantic-Mediterranean seashores J.J. VAN AARTSEN National Museum of Natural History, P.O.Box 9517, 2300 RA Leiden, The Netherlands. A study of the Atlantic – and Mediterranean marine species of the genera Assiminea and Paludinella revealed several new species. The species Assiminea gittenbergeri spec. nov. is estab- lished in the Mediterranean. Assiminea avilai spec. nov. and Assiminea rolani spec. nov. have been found in Terceira, Azores and in Madeira respectively. A species from the Atlantic coast of France, cited as Assiminea eliae Paladilhe, 1875 by Thiele, is described as Paludinella glaubrechti spec. nov. A. eliae cannot be identified today as no type material is known. The name , howev- er, is used for several different species as documented herein. Assiminea ostiorum (Bavay, 1920) is here considered a species in its own right. Paludinella sicana ( Brugnone, 1876), until now con- sidered an exclusively Mediterranean species, has been detected along the Atlantic coast at Laredo ( Spain) in the north as well as at Agadir ( Morocco) in the south. Keywords: Gastropoda, Caenogastropoda, Assimineidae, Assiminea, Paludinella, systematics, Atlantic Ocean east coast, Mediterranean. INTRODUCTION The Assimineidae H. & A. Adams, 1856 are a group of mollusks living worldwide in brackish water, in freshwater as well as terrestrial habitats. In Europe there are only a few species known. They live in usually more or less brackish conditions high in the tidal zone, frequently along tidal mudflats. The two genera recognized to date are Paludinella Pfeiffer, 1841 with Paludinella littorina (Delle Chiaje, 1828) and Paludinella sicana (Brugnone, 1876) and the type-genus Assiminea Leach in Fleming, 1828, with the type- species Assiminea grayana (Fleming, 1828) as well as Assiminea eliae Paladilhe, 1875.
