Lymnaea stagnalis (L., 1758) is among the most widespread and well-studied species of freshwater Mollusca of the northern hemisphere. It is also notoriously known for its huge conchological variability. The history of scientific exploration of this species may be traced back to the end of the 16th century (Ulisse Aldrovandi in Renaissance Italy) and, thus, L. stagnalis has been chosen as a proper model taxon to demonstrate how changes in theoretical foundations and methodology of animal taxonomy have been reflected in the practice of classification of a particular taxon, especially on the intraspecific level. In this paper, I depict the long story of recognition of L. stagnalis by naturalists and biologists since the 16th century up to the present day. It is shown that different taxonomic philosophies (essentialism, population thinking, tree thinking) led to different views on the species' internal structure and its systematic position itself. The problem of how to deal with intraspecific variability in the taxonomic arrangement of L. stagnalis has been a central problem that made systematists change their opinion following conceptual shifts in taxonomic theory. 13 pp., 4 figs, 4.

The article represents an overview of 29 biological species of the radicine snails (genera Ampullaceana Servain, 1882, Bullastra Bergh, 1901, Racesina Vinarski & Bolotov, 2018, Kamtschaticana Kruglov & Starobogatov, 1984, Myxas G.B. Sowerby I, 1822, Orientogalba Kruglov & Starobogatov, 1985; Peregriana Servain, 1882, Radix Montfort, 1810, and Tibetoradix Bolotov, Vinarski & Aksenova, 2018) recovered during our previous molecular taxonomic study (Aksenova et al. 2018a; Scientific Reports, 8: 11199). For each species, the following information is provided: scientific name, a (non-exhaustive) list of synonyms, type locality, type materials, shell and copulative apparatus morphology, distribution, and nomenclatural and taxonomic remarks. The colour images of shell(s) of each species are also given as well as illustrations of the copulatory apparatuses. We revealed a great conchological variation in the radicines, both intra- and interspecific, alongside with striking uniformity in the structure of their copulatory apparatuses. The latter was once thought to be a reliable tool for species delineation and identification in this snail group. The total of 29 species characterised here represents, probably, only a subset of the global taxonomic richness of the radicine snails, which approaches 50 species. 32 pp., 9 figs, 4 tabs, 4.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - The Lymnaeidae (also known as 'pond snails') are a species-rich and globally distributed family of freshwater snails, many species of which are known to be hosts of parasitic trematodes (such as the liver fluke,Fasciola hepatica). Written by world-leading experts in the field, this book covers a wealth of topics ranging from the phylogeny and taxonomy of lymnaeid snails to their relationships with helminths and their impact on public and veterinary health. It provides an overview of the species richness, evolution, ecology, biogeography and fossil record of the family. A considerable number of chapters are devoted to the economic and medical importance of lymnaeids, their involvement in the transmission of fascioliasis and other zoonotic diseases. Special chapters deal with the molecular and morphological identification of the Lymnaeidae, their rearing in the laboratory and experimental approaches to their study.This contributed volume is aimed at experts and practitioners in various disciplines: Invertebrate zoology, evolutionary biology, biogeography, aquatic ecology, parasitology, epidemiology and public health. It is also useful for university lecturers, undergraduate and postgraduate students.

In 1951, the Swedish malacologist Bengt Hubendick published a catalog of species-group names in the family Lymnaeidae proposed since 1758. This catalog includes 1151 entries, with information on their type localities, bibliographic references, and the position of each taxon in the then used system. Extinct taxa were not listed. This publication is an expanded and substantially revised version of Hubendick's catalog, taking into account all species-group names proposed for the pond snails, from 1951 to 2024, as well a number of names once overlooked by Hubendick. The present Nomenclator contains 1557 names, for each of which a reference to the original description, an indication of the type locality, the position of the taxon in the current system, and an indication of a later publication in which a photographic image of the type is given (if such a publication occured). In some cases, taxonomic and nomenclatural remarks are provided regarding the status of particular taxa. 134 pp., br. 4.

The Aral and Caspian Seas belong to the group of the World's largest brackish water basins that are characterized by a long geological history and unique biota, including a rich and diverse fauna of mollusks (bivalves and gastropods). Though the history of scientific exploration of the Aralo-Caspian malacofauna can be traced back to the end of the 18th century, there is still a lack of a comprehensive and illustrated survey of Mollusca of these two sea basins. The book provides an annotated inventory of the recent Bivalvia and Gastropoda of the Aral and Caspian Seas, with their synonymy, notes on ecology and distribution, and images of shells (including numerous images of type specimens - holotypes, lectotypes, syntypes, etc.). An extensive overview of the physical geographical conditions of the two basins as well as their geological history is provided alongside with an outline of the historical development of their malacofaunas. The systematic part contains a description of the fauna, represented in the Aral Sea by two species of Gastropoda and seven species of Bivalvia, and in the Caspian Sea by 33-34 species of Bivalvia and 63 species of Gastropoda. These estimates, however, are of provisional character only, since the high level of taxonomic uncertainty makes it impossible to determine exactly the actual number of living species. A special discussion is devoted to the drastic degradation of the Aralo-Caspian malacofauna in the former century, which was caused primarily by the anthropogenic destruction of the aquatic environment and inflow of alien molluscan species. 124 pp., 16 color plates, 38 text figs, 5 tabs, br. 4.

The monograph summarizes information on taxonomy, nomenclature, distribution and some aspects of bionomics of molluscs of the former USSR fresh and brackish waters. This 'Analytical Catalogue' is a deeply improved and updated version of two previously published catalogue works (Yu. I. Kantor, A. V. Sysoev "Catalogue of mollusks of Russia and adjacent countries", 2002, in Russian; and Yu. I. Kantor, M. V. Vinarski, A. A. Shileyko, A. V. Sysoev "Catalogue of the continental mollusks of Russia and adjacent territories", 2010). In total, the data of 424 nominal species of Bivalvia and 728 nominal species of Gastropoda are included into this book. The actual species richness of aquatic continental molluscs of the former USSR perhaps is significantly lower since validity of many of these nominal species may be questioned and a portion of them is destined to be synonymized in future. During preparation of the book the authors tried to take into account different views on systematization of the ex-USSR aquatic molluscs and to find some correspondence between the 'Russian' system (founded in 1960-1970s by Ya. I. Starobogatov) and the approach followed by malacologists wrorking outside Russia. Current approaches to the 'species problem' in malacology are briefly discussed. Also, the catalogue includes information about distribution of all molluscan species among large regions of the former USSR area, some data about invasions of alien species and the conservation status of indigenous taxa in accordance with IUCN Red List criteria. The quantitative estimates of faunistic similarity between aquatic malacofaunas of the ex-USSR large regions and the results of the cluster analysis carried out on the basis of these estimates are also provided. 543 pp., 5 figs, 22 tabs, hc gr. 8.
