Target‐capture probes for phylogenomics of the Caenogastropoda

open access: yesMolecular Ecology Resources, Volume 23, Issue 6, Page 1372-1388, August 2023., 2023
Abstract Target‐capture approaches have facilitated a rapid growth in the field of phylogenomics but few probe sets exist for molluscs, an exceptionally rich phylum with unparalleled ecological and morphological diversity. We designed and tested the first universal probe set using Phyluce to capture ultraconserved elements (UCEs) and exon loci from the

Origin of the tropical–polar biodiversity contrast

open access: yesGlobal Ecology and Biogeography, Volume 31, Issue 6, Page 1207-1227, June 2022., 2022
Abstract Aim The aim was to investigate the evolutionary origins of the striking biodiversity contrast between high‐ and low‐latitude regions in the present day. Is this a relatively recent phenomenon, causally linked in some way to the greenhouse–icehouse transition and onset of global cooling c.

Going with the flow? Diversification of gastropods reflects drainage evolution in Africa

open access: yesJournal of Biogeography, Volume 48, Issue 7, Page 1579-1593, July 2021., 2021
Abstract Aim The roles of geodynamics, climatic variability and landscape evolution in shaping aquatic biodiversity patterns on the African continent remain poorly understood. We studied the geographical origin and phylogenetic relationships of an Afrotropical freshwater snail genus to examine the role of drainage evolution on diversification and range

The complete mitochondrial genome of the viviparous freshwater snail <i>Tylomelania sarasinorum</i> (Caenogastropoda: Cerithioidea). [PDF]

open access: yesMitochondrial DNA B Resour, 2016
Here, we present the first complete mitochondrial genome within the gastropod family Pachychilidae, using the viviparous freshwater snail Tylomelania sarasinorum. This species is a representative member of the lacustrine Tylomelania radiations of the Malili-Lakes-System (Sulawesi, Indonesia). The mitochondrial genome was 16,632 bp long and contained 13

Cassiopid gastropods from the cretaceous of Western Serbia [PDF]

open access: yesGeološki Anali Balkanskoga Poluostrva, 2007
Three species of Cassiopidae (Cerithioidea, Gastropoda) are described from outcrops in the vicinity of the villages Rastište and Mokra Gora in western Serbia. They occur in marly limestones of near shore shallow water deposits.

Systematic relationships of Chinese freshwater semisulcospirids (Gastropoda, Cerithioidea) revealed by mitochondrial sequences. [PDF]

open access: yesZool Res, 2019
The systematics of Semisulcospiridae in China is revised here based on morphological characters and mitochondrial phylogenetics. Phylogenetic relationships within the Chinese semisulcospirids were assessed via DNA sequences from mitochondrial analysis (cytochrome c oxidase I and 16S rRNA).

Melanopsidae (Caenogastropoda: Cerithioidea) from the eastern Mediterranean: another case of morphostatic speciation [PDF]

open access: yesZoological Journal of the Linnean Society, 2020
AbstractMelanopsidae were collected from 23 localities in central and south-eastern Europe, the Aegean Islands and Israel. This study considered Melanopsis from the Aegean Islands, the Peloponnese and Israel, and Esperiana esperi, Holandriana holandrii and Microcolpia from continental Europe.

Survey of Stenomelania Fisher, 1885 (Cerithioidea, Thiaridae): The potential of trematode infections in a newly-recorded snail genus at the coast of Andaman Sea, South Thailand [PDF]

open access: yesZoosystematics and Evolution, 2020
Stenomelania snails (Fisher 1885) have been reported from the coastal regions of the Indian Ocean and the Pacific Ocean, spanning India to Australia. Here, the species diversity and distribution of these snails in the south of Thailand are recorded.
