The Mitochondrial Genome of Littoraria melanostoma Reveals Phylogenetic Relationship of Littorinimorpha

open access: yes, 2023
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.

Neogastropod phylogenetic relationships based on entire mitochondrial genomes

open access: yesBMC Evolutionary Biology, 2009
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 ...

The Serbian Lake System: a stepping stone for freshwater molluscs in the middle Miocene

open access: yesPapers in Palaeontology, Volume 6, Issue 4, Page 533-569, November 2020., 2020
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 ...

Conservation and variation in mitochondrial genomes of gastropods Oncomelania hupensis and Tricula hortensis, intermediate host snails of Schistosoma in China [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The complete mitochondrial genomes of intermediate host snails for Schistosoma in China were sequenced, including the sub-species Oncomelania hupensis hupensis in two types, and O.

Redefining Latrogastropoda Again and Searching for Its Sister Group in Hypsogastropoda (Gastropoda: Caenogastropoda)

open access: yesDiversity
Caenogastropoda is a highly speciose and ecologically diverse subclass of Gastropoda but its higher order classification remains unclear, especially within its largest constituent group, Hypsogastropoda.

Prosobranch and shelled opisthobranch molluscs from Store Ekkerøya, Varangerfjorden (northern Norway)

open access: yesFauna Norvegica, 1984
Forty-one prosobranch and six shelled opisthobranch species were collected at Store Ekkerøya (70°05'N., 30°08'E.). Four of these are published for the first time from Varangerfjorden (Helcion pellucidum, Lacuna crassior, Onoba semicostata and Retusa ...

Characterization of the complete mitochondrial genome of Euspira gilva with phylogenetic analysis

open access: yesMitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2020
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 ...

Redescription and designation of a neotype for Caecum floridanum (Littorinimorpha, Truncatelloidea, Caecidae) with a characterization of the protoconch and growth stages [PDF]

open access: yesZooKeys, 2016
After an extensive search for the type specimens of Caecum floridanum Stimpson, 1851, we believe that these specimens may have been either lost or destroyed in the Chicago fire (1871). This paper presents a redescription of the species and a neotype is designated based on material from the type locality (Florida). Protoconch and growth stages of Caecum

Littorinimorpha Golikov & Starobogatov 1975

open access: yes, 2019
Order Littorinimorpha Superfamily Truncatelloidea Remarks. The superfamily Rissooidea was previously used to include Tateidae and related families, but Criscione & Ponder (2013) have shown that the Rissooidea and Truncatelloidea should be recognised as two separate superfamilies, with the former containing only a few marine families.
