Second annotated list of type specimens of molluscs deposited in the Museu de Zoologia da Universidade de São Paulo, Brazil

“…The list presented below follows the standards of Dornellas & Simone (2011), with some modifications. The taxa are arranged in alphabetical order of specific epithets.…”

“…The second line contains a citation to the original description, including a full range of pages and indications of the original figures when applicable. The remaining information is displayed according to the following template (modified after Dornellas & Simone 2011 Rios (2009). Nevertheless, it did not fulfill the requirements of ICZN articles 16.1 (the species' name must be explicitly indicated as intentionally new) and 16.4 (fixation of name-bearing types must be explicit).…”

“…Of the nearly 30 000 lots incorporated into the MZSP collection after the previous compilation of type specimens (Dornellas & Simone 2011), 352 are types. Some of the most important recently acquired items include numerous paratypes of Asian pomatiopsid taxa described by Rolf A.M. Brandt and P. Temcharoen in the late 1960s and early 1970s, as well as many diplommatinids described by W.J.M.…”

A contribuição de Frederico Lange de Morretes para a malacologia brasileira

“…Atualmente, a maior parte da coleção particular de moluscos de Lange de Morretes encontra-se depositada no Museu de Zoologia da Universidade de São Paulo (Dornellas & Simone, 2011;Cavallari et al, 2016). Outros espécimes malacológicos coletados por ele durante sua vida acadêmica estão depositados no Museu Nacional, Rio de Janeiro, no Museu de História Natural Capão da Imbuia e Museu Paranaense, ambos em Curitiba, na coleção do Laboratório de Ecologia Aplicada e Bioinvasões da UFPR e, possivelmente, também com particulares.…”

The Mollusca Collection of University of São Paulo Museum of Zoology: An Overview and Perspectives

“…The relevance of MZUSP's collection for the development of studies on mollusks in Brazil and Latin America is recognized and often recollected (Simone, 2003;Colley et al, 2012). Several renowned researchers worked directly or indirectly with the assemblage since its creation, and the study of its specimens has brought and still brings forth articles, monographs and theses, both nationally and abroad (e.g., Leme, 1973;Simone, 2004;Dornellas & Simone, 2011;Simone, 2011). In order to highlight the collection's representativeness and taxonomic importance at national and international levels, a descriptive study is herein presented, and curatorial aspects and future prospects are discussed.…”
