Mitogenome and nuclear rRNA gene cluster of <i>Austropeplea subaquatilis</i> (Tate, 1880) from South Australia, with molecular and morphological comparison of A. cf. brazieri (Smith, 1882) from Victoria (Gastropoda, Hygrophila, Lymnaeidae). [PDF]
Abstract Species of Austropeplea are lymnaeid snails endemic to Australia and New Zealand, and most are intermediate hosts of parasitic trematodes. Their taxonomy has long been uncertain due to the high phenotypic plasticity of most species.
