  • Table 9: Possibly Extinct and Possibly Extinct in the Wild Species
    IUCN Red List version 2014.3: Table 9 Last Updated: 13 November 2014 Table 9: Possibly Extinct and Possibly Extinct in the Wild Species The number of recent extinctions documented by the Extinct (EX) and Extinct in the Wild (EW) categories on The IUCN Red List is likely to be a significant underestimate, even for well-known taxa such as birds. The tags 'Possibly Extinct' and 'Possibly Extinct in the Wild' have therefore been developed to identify those Critically Endangered species that are, on the balance of evidence, likely to be extinct (or extinct in the wild). These species cannot be listed as EX or EW until their extinction can be confirmed (i.e., until adequate surveys have been carried out and have failed to record the species and local or unconfirmed reports have been investigated and discounted). All 'Possibly Extinct' and 'Possibly Extinct in the Wild' species on the current IUCN Red List are listed in the table below, along the year each assessment was carried out and, where available, the date each species was last recorded in the wild. Where the last record is an unconfirmed report, last recorded date is noted as "possibly".

  • Land Snails of Leicestershire and Rutland
    Land Snails of Leicestershire and Rutland Introduction There are 50 known species of land snail found in Leicestershire and Rutland (VC55) which represents about half of the 100 UK species. However molluscs are an under-recorded taxon group so it is possible that more species could be found and equally possible that a few may now be extinct in our two counties. There was a 20 year period of enthusiastic mollusc recording between 1967 and 1986, principally by museum staff, which account for the majority of species. Whilst records have increased again in the last three years thanks to NatureSpot, some species have not been recorded for over 30 years. All our land snails are in the class Gastropoda and the order Pulmonata. Whilst some of these species require damp habitats and are generally found near to aquatic habitats, they are all able to survive out of water. A number of species are largely restricted to calcareous habitats so are only found at a few sites. The sizes stated refer to the largest dimension of the shell typically found in adult specimens. There is much variation in many species and juveniles will of course be smaller. Note that the images are all greater than life size and not all the to the same scale. I have tried to display them at a sufficiently large scale so that the key features are visible. Always refer to the sizes given in the text. Status refers to abundance in Leicestershire and Rutland (VC55). However molluscs are generally under- recorded so our understanding of their distribution could easily change.

Описаны виды: Leiostyla krstichae из Сербии и Leiostyla ex gr. gottschicki из Украины. В неогене Европы известно лишь несколько видов рода Leiostyla L o v e, результаты изуче- ния которых изложены в работе Дж. Манганелли и др. [1]. Это миоценовые L. gottschicki We n z, описанные В.

В последнее время J. K´okay [5] определил молодой экземпляр из сармата Венгрии как L. gottschicki. Этот вид встречен нами в низах нижнего сармата Польши [6]. На мой взгляд, все перечисленные виды, кроме L. austriaca, принадлежат одной группе L. gottschicki We n z. Раковины указанного рода собраны в Центральной Сербии в озерных мергелях и глинах (аналог низов нижнего сармата) в известном местонахождении млекопитающих (Врачевич) и на Подолии (Украина, Летичевщина) в скважине у с.

  • An Annotated List of the Non-Marine Mollusca of Britain and Ireland
    JOURNAL OF CONCHOLOGY (2005), VOL.38, NO .6 607 AN ANNOTATED LIST OF THE NON-MARINE MOLLUSCA OF BRITAIN AND IRELAND ROY ANDERSON1 Abstract An updated nomenclatural list of the non-marine Mollusca of the Britain and Ireland is provided. This updates all previous lists and revises nomenclature and classification in the context of recent changes and of new European lists, including the Clecom List. Cases are made for the usage of names in the List by means of annotations. The List will provide a basis for the future census and cataloguing of the fauna of Britain and Ireland. Key words Taxonomic, list, nomenclature, non-marine, Mollusca, Britain, Ireland, annotated. INTRODUCTION There has been a need for some time to modernise the list of non-marine Mollusca for Britain and Ireland, a subject last visited in this journal in 1976 (Waldén 1976; Kerney 1976). Many of the changes that have appeared in the literature since then are contentious and Kerney (1999) chose not to incorporate many of these into the latest atlas of non-marine Mollusca of Britain and Ireland. A new European List, the Clecom List (Falkner et al. 2001) has now appeared and it seems appropriate to examine in more detail constituent changes which might affect the British and Irish faunas. This is given additional urgency by the inception of a new census of the molluscs of Britain and Ireland by the Conchological Society. Recorders in the Society are aware of many of the proposed changes but unable to implement them without general agreement. In addition, many field malacologists make use of the recording package RECORDER, a recent form of which has been developed jointly by JNCC and the National Biodiversity Network in the United Kingdom.

E-mail: [email protected]; [email protected] Leiostyla R.T. Lowe, 1852 is a disjunctly distributed pupilloid group of land snails known from the Macaronesian islands, Western Europe, Algeria, Bulgaria, Turkey, the Caucasus region and Iran (Pilsbry 1922–1923; Schileyko 1984; Gittenberger & Pieper 1988; Hausdorf 1990). In the Neogene the genus was more widespread in Central and Western Europe (Pilsbry 1922). Thus, the Caucasus region and the Macaronesian islands, where the highest recent diversity of Leiostyla species is found (Pilsbry 1922–1923), can be considered refugial areas. The classification of the species from the Caucasus region in a separate genus Euxinolauria Lindholm, 1924 by Schileyko (1975, 1984) was not justified by any characteristics of these species (see Gittenberger & Pieper 1988; Hausdorf 1990). Anatomical studies and a molecular phylogeny showed that Euxinolauria sensu Schileyko is polyphyletic (Pokryszko et al. 2013). Consequently, we continue to use Leiostyla in the wide sense. Although our knowledge about the Leiostyla species of the Caucasus region considerably increased in the last decades (Gittenberger & Pieper 1988; Hausdorf 1996; Pokryszko 1991; Schileyko 1984, 1988; Suvorov & Schileyko 1991), new species are still being discovered.
