Macrogastra Badia (C. Pfeiffer
Vol. 17(2): 53–62 MACROGASTRA BADIA (C. PFEIFFER, 1828) (GASTROPODA: PULMONATA: CLAUSILIIDAE) IN ZIELENIEC (BYSTRZYCKIE MTS, CENTRAL SUDETES) – ECOLOGY, CONSERVATION STATUS AND LIFE HISTORY – PRELIMINARY DATA TOMASZ K. MALTZ,BEATA M. POKRYSZKO Museum of Natural History, Wroc³aw University, Sienkiewicza 21, 50-335 Wroc³aw, Poland (e-mail: [email protected], [email protected]) ABSTRACT: Information on thedistribution on theAlpine M. badia in Poland dates from the 1960s and was not verified subsequently. A new locality was discovered in 2003 (Bystrzyckie Mts, Zieleniec near Duszniki-Zdrój); it forms a part of a group of isolated, Polish and Czech localities on the border of the species’ distribution range. In the discussed part of the range the species is threatened by habitat destruction and climatic changes. It is legally protected in Poland but preserving its populations requires habitat protection. The preferred habi- tat is herb-rich beech forest, and cool and humid climate is crucial for the species’ survival. The composition of the accompanying malacofauna varies among the sites which is probably associated with their origin. M. badia is oviparous; in May and June it produces batches of 1–3 eggs. The eggs are partly calcified, 1.39–1.61 in major and 1.32–1.45 mm in minor diameter. The incubation period is 16–19 days; the hatching is asynchron- ous; the juveniles reach adult size in 7–8 months. Some data on shell variation are provided; the number of ap- ertural folds varies more widely than formerly believed.

A New Species and New Genus of Clausiliidae (Gastropoda: Stylommatophora) from South-Eastern Hubei, China

The new taxon is characterised by having thick and cylindrical apical whorls, a strongly expanded lamella inferior and a lamella subcolumellaris that together form a tubular structure at the base of the peristome, and a dorsal lunella connected to both the upper and the lower palatal plicae. Illustrations of the new species are provided.

Simple Summary: The superfamily Helicoidea is a large and diverse group of Eupulmonata. The su- perfamily has been the subject of several molecular and phylogenetic studies which greatly improved our knowledge on the evolutionary relationships and historical biogeography of many families. In contrast, the available karyological information on Helicoidea still results in an obscure general picture, lacking a homogeneous methodological approach and a consistent taxonomic record. Never- theless, the available karyological information highlights the occurrence of a significant chromosomal diversity in the superfamily in terms of chromosome number (varying from 2n = 40 to 2n = 62), Citation: Petraccioli, A.; Crovato, P.; chromosome morphology and the distribution of different karyological features among different Guarino, F.M.; Mezzasalma, M.; taxonomic groups.

Petrov, Zoological Institute, Russian Academy of Sciences, 1 Universitetskaya Emb., St Petersburg 199034, Russia. E-mail: [email protected] Recent studies on mating and copulation in pulmonates have provided a better understanding of a functional relationship between various aspects of their biology and have greatly advanced our knowledge of their reproductive behaviour. Here we describe the mating behaviour, copu- latory mechanics and genital anatomy of Hippeutis complanatus (Linnaeus, 1758), a Palaearc- tic freshwater pulmonates, and compare these results with those from Segmentina oelandica (Westerlund, 1885). In H. complanatus, the individual that initiates mating mounts the shell of the partner and crawls over its basal side to position itself at the shell aperture for intromis- sion. The copulatory connection is achieved by the preputium and its musculo-glandular ap- pendage (preputial organ) that attaches to the shell of the partner. Hippeutis complanatus and S. oelandica share a number of common traits in genital morphology and mating behaviour, most notably the unilateral copulation and the use of the preputial organ as a holdfast. These species also show some significant differences: the opposite orientation of the partners, chemi- cal stimulation in S. -
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. -
