Here, we report on a portion of the collection, and list 17 species from seven genera of the Hypselostomatidae microsnails. Three new species from two genera are described as Bensonella taiyaiorum Tongkerd & Panha, sp. nov. , B. lophiodera Tongkerd & Panha, sp. nov. , and Gyliotrachela aunglini Tongkerd & Panha, sp. nov. All new species are known only from the type locality in Shan State ( Bensonella ) and Kayin State ( Gyliotrachela ). A new combination of Acinolaemus dayanum and three newly recorded species, namely A. cryptidentatus , B. anguloobtusa and G. hungerfordiana are discussed. The low morphological variability of the widely distributed G. hungerfordiana is discussed, and two species are proposed for formal synonymisation. Constituting the first records for Myanmar, five species of Bensonella and two species of Acinolaemus were collected.

AB - Land snails exhibit an extraordinary variety of shell shapes. The way shells are constructed underlie biological and mechanical constraints that vary across gastropod clades. Here, we quantify shell geometry of the two largest groups, Stylommatophora and Cyclophoroidea, to assess the potential causes for variation in shell shape and its relative frequency. Based on µCT scans, we estimate material efficiency through 2D- and 3D-generalisations of the isoperimetric ratio, quantifying the ratios between area and perimeter of whorl cross-sections (2D) and shell volume and surface (3D), respectively. We find that stylommatophorans optimise material usage through whorl overlap, which may have promoted the diversification of flat-shelled species. Cyclophoroids are bound to a circular cross-section because of their operculum; flat shells are comparatively rare. Both groups show similar solutions for tall shells, where local geometry has a smaller effect because of the double overlap between previous and current whorls. Our results suggest that material efficiency is a driving factor in the selection of shell geometry. Essentially, the evolutionary success of Stylommatophora likely roots in their higher flexibility to produce an economic shell.

Sutural tube formation during ontogeny in Alycaeidae (Mollusca: Caenogastropoda: Cyclophoroidea) JF - FOLIA MALACOLOGICA J2 - FOLIA MALACOL VL - 31 PY - 2023 IS - 4 SP - 206 EP - 210 PG - 5 SN - 1506-7629 DO - 10.12657/folmal.031.027 UR - https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/34421685 ID - 34421685 AB - The Alycaeidae are characterized by a complex gas exchange device, which consists of a sutural tube that is closed at its end, and several, perpendicularly running, narrow microtunnels. A single report, published in a hard-to-access journal, mentioned that the tube is formed “backwards”, but the author provided no illustrations. Here I publish photos and SEM micrographs of an adult alycaeid shell with an incompletely developed tube, and a subadult alycaeid shell with microtunnels, but no sutural tube. Both cases suggest that the sutural tube is indeed formed “backwards”, after all microtunnels are completed. With this, the previous observation is confirmed. LA - English DB - MTMT ER -
