Abstract
Three new species of camaenid land snail, Camaena qiannanensis Chen, Dai, Wu & Ouyang sp. n., Camaena feichenyui Chen, Dai, Wu & Ouyang sp. n. and Camaena qinghuai Chen, Dai, Wu & Ouyang sp. n. are described from Guizhou and Guangxi of southern China based on shell and genital morphology, and molecular phylogeny. The phylogenetic result shows that the genus Camaena is not a monophyletic group, with Camaenella located within it. The discovery enhances the species diversity of Camaena in Southern China and fills the gap between distribution areas of known species.
Abstract
Two new land snail species of the family Enidae, Serina xirong Chen, Dai, Wu & Ouyang sp. n. and Turanena jiuzhaigouensis Chen, Dai, Wu & Ouyang sp. n., are described from Jiuzhaigou County, Sichuan Province, China based on conchological morphology. Serina xirong can be distinguished from congeneric species by its ribbed teleoconch, and Turanena jiuzhaigouensis can be distinguished from congeneric species by its micro, conic, weakly keeled shell without color stripes before body whorl. This discovery further enhances our understanding of the enid species diversity in Sichuan Province.
