In Bahia, Brazil
Volume 52(40):515‑524, 2012 A NEW GENUS AND SPECIES OF CAVERNICOLOUS POMATIOPSIDAE (MOLLUSCA, CAENOGASTROPODA) IN BAHIA, BRAZIL 1 LUIZ RICARDO L. SIMONE ABSTRACT Spiripockia punctata is a new genus and species of Pomatiopsidae found in a cave from Serra Ramalho, SW Bahia, Brazil. The taxon is troglobiont (restricted to subterranean realm), and is characterized by the shell weakly elongated, fragile, translucent, normally sculptured by pus‑ tules with periostracum hair on tip of pustules; peristome highly expanded; umbilicus opened; radular rachidian with 6 apical and 3 pairs of lateral cusps; osphradium short, arched; gill filaments with rounded tip; prostate flattened, with vas deferens inserting subterminally; penis duct narrow and weakly sinuous; pallial oviduct simple anteriorly, possessing convoluted by‑ pass connecting base of bulged portion of transition between visceral and pallial oviducts with base of seminal receptacle; spermathecal duct complete, originated from albumen gland. The description of this endemic species may raise protective environmental actions to that cave and to the Serra Ramalho Karst area. Key-Words: Pomatiopsidae; Spiripockia punctata gen. nov. et sp. nov.; Brazil; Cave; Tro- globiont; Anatomy. INTRODUCTION An enigmatic tiny gastropod has been collected in caves from the Serra Ramalho Kars area, southwestern The family Pomatiopsidae is represented in the Bahia state, Brazil.

Terrestrial Invasion of Pomatiopsid Gastropods in the Heavy-Snow Region of the Japanese Archipelago Yuichi Kameda* and Makoto Kato
Kameda and Kato BMC Evolutionary Biology 2011, 11:118 http://www.biomedcentral.com/1471-2148/11/118 RESEARCHARTICLE Open Access Terrestrial invasion of pomatiopsid gastropods in the heavy-snow region of the Japanese Archipelago Yuichi Kameda* and Makoto Kato Abstract Background: Gastropod mollusks are one of the most successful animals that have diversified in the fully terrestrial habitat. They have evolved terrestrial taxa in more than nine lineages, most of which originated during the Paleozoic or Mesozoic. The rissooidean gastropod family Pomatiopsidae is one of the few groups that have evolved fully terrestrial taxa during the late Cenozoic. The pomatiopsine diversity is particularly high in the Japanese Archipelago and the terrestrial taxa occur only in this region. In this study, we conducted thorough samplings of Japanese pomatiopsid species and performed molecular phylogenetic analyses to explore the patterns of diversification and terrestrial invasion. Results: Molecular phylogenetic analyses revealed that Japanese Pomatiopsinae derived from multiple colonization of the Eurasian Continent and that subsequent habitat shifts from aquatic to terrestrial life occurred at least twice within two Japanese endemic lineages. Each lineage comprises amphibious and terrestrial species, both of which are confined to the mountains in heavy-snow regions facing the Japan Sea. The estimated divergence time suggested that diversification of these terrestrial lineages started in the Late Miocene, when active orogenesis of the Japanese landmass and establishment of snowy conditions began. Conclusions: The terrestrial invasion of Japanese Pomatiopsinae occurred at least twice beside the mountain streamlets of heavy-snow regions, which is considered the first case of this event in the area. -

Schistosoma Mekongi
Phuphisut et al. Parasites & Vectors (2018) 11:504 https://doi.org/10.1186/s13071-018-3086-z RESEARCH Open Access Transcriptomic analysis of male and female Schistosoma mekongi adult worms Orawan Phuphisut1, Pravech Ajawatanawong2, Yanin Limpanont3, Onrapak Reamtong4, Supaporn Nuamtanong1, Sumate Ampawong5, Salisa Chaimon1, Paron Dekumyoy1, Dorn Watthanakulpanich1, Brett E. Swierczewski6 and Poom Adisakwattana1* Abstract Background: Schistosoma mekongi is one of five major causative agents of human schistosomiasis and is endemic to communities along the Mekong River in southern Lao People’s Democratic Republic (Laos) and northern Cambodia. Sporadic cases of schistosomiasis have been reported in travelers and immigrants who have visited endemic areas. Schistosoma mekongi biology and molecular biology is poorly understood, and few S. mekongi gene and transcript sequences are available in public databases. Results: Transcriptome sequencing (RNA-Seq) of male and female S. mekongi adult worms (a total of three biological replicates for each sex) were analyzed and the results demonstrated that approximately 304.9 and 363.3 million high- quality clean reads with quality Q30 (> 90%) were obtained from male and female adult worms, respectively. A total of 119,604 contigs were assembled with an average length of 1273 nt and an N50 of 2017 nt. From the contigs, 20,798 annotated protein sequences and 48,256 annotated transcript sequences were obtained using BLASTP and BLASTX searches against the UniProt Trematoda database. A total of 4658 and 3509 transcripts were predominantly expressed in male and female worms, respectively. Male-biased transcripts were mostly involved in structural organization while female-biased transcripts were typically involved in cell differentiation and egg production.
