Neogastropod phylogenetic relationships based on entire mitochondrial genomes
Background The Neogastropoda is a highly diversified group of predatory marine snails (Gastropoda: Caenogastropoda). Traditionally, its monophyly has been widely accepted based on several morphological synapomorphies mostly related with the digestive ...

Littoraria melanostoma (Gray, 1839) is a most common species of gastropods in mangroves. They quickly respond during the early stage of mangrove restoration and usually form a dominant community within a certain period. We characterized the complete mitochondrial genome of the species. The whole mitogenome of L.

The Serbian Lake System: a stepping stone for freshwater molluscs in the middle Miocene
Abstract The first in‐depth revision of a lacustrine freshwater mollusc fauna of the Serbian Lake System (SLS) is carried out. We describe and discuss well‐preserved faunas from two localities in central and southern Serbia (Mađere and Medoševac), along with the reinvestigation of type material of several species described in the late nineteenth and ...

Characterization of the complete mitochondrial genome of Euspira gilva with phylogenetic analysis
Here, we determined the complete mitogenome sequence of Euspira gilva (Littorinimorpha: Naticidae). The complete mitochondrial genome is circular and 16,119 bp in length, containing 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 2 ribosomal RNA genes, and 22 transfer ...

MOLLUSK OF THE FAMILY BITHYNIIDAE (GASTROPODA, LITTORINIMORPHA) OF THE LOWER VOLGA PLAINS RIVER
Background. Preservation of stable and sustainable natural conditions in aquatic ecosystems of various territories is the most urgent problem of nature management in many regions of the world. Occurring changes together with the anthropogenic factor intensify the processes of destabilization of watercourse biocenoses.
