Land Snails of the Madeira Islands [PDF]
Nature, 1922 IN 1892 (Journal of Conchology, vol. vii. No. 1) the Rev. R. Boog Watson published a very interesting discussion of the Madeira snails, in which he raised many questions concerning their origin and history, which he did not attempt to answer. Today, we are still groping for light, but I believe we may reach a number of conclusions which are not likely ...

Ecological Indicators, 2021 Riparian ecosystems are crucial for landscape-level biodiversity, especially in highly anthropic and agricultural areas. Although the low mobility of snails reduces their dispersal capacity and makes them vulnerable to habitat degradation, they are less ...

A phylogeny of the land snails (Gastropoda: Pulmonata) [PDF]
Proceedings of the Royal Society of London. Series B: Biological Sciences, 2001 We have undertaken the first large-scale molecular phylogenetic analysis of the Stylommatophora. Sequences of the ribosomal RNA gene-cluster were examined in 104 species of snails and slugs from 50 families, encompassing all the currently recognized major groups. It allows an independent test of the present classification based on morphology.
