Phylogeny and Taxonomy of the Family Lymnaeidae

  • First Online:
The Lymnaeidae

Part of the book series: Zoological Monographs ((ZM,volume 7))

Abstract

A new three-locus (COI + 16S rRNA +28S rRNA) phylogeny of the living representatives of the family Lymnaeidae, which covers the majority of recent genera and subgenera, is proposed. Two living subfamilies (Lymnaeinae Rafinesque, 1815 and Amphipepleinae Pini, 1877), each divided into a series of tribes, are recognized. Four tribes (Austropepleini, Omphiscolini, Peregrianini, and Tibetoradicini), are described as new for science, however, some lymnaeid genera have not been assigned to a tribe due to scarcity of available information. An annotated list of all accepted lymnaeid taxa above the species level is provided, with short synonymies, morphological diagnoses, distributional and taxonomic remarks (when appropriate).

Notes

  1. 1.

    This list of generic synonyms is, most probably, not exhaustive.

  2. 2.

    Here and below, the following abbreviations are used. M – type species designated by monotypy; OD – type species designated in the original description; SD – subsequent designation of the type species; SM – designated by subsequent monotypy.

  3. 3.

    The full synonymy of this genus is too extensive to be given here in full.
