“…Relevant information on taxonomy and the systematic position of Plectostylus has been discussed by different authors (Breure & Romero, 2012;Valdovinos & Stuardo, 1988;Van Bruggen et al, 2016). On the other hand, several authors (Araya, 2016;Araya & Catalán, 2014;Jackson & Jackson, 2011;Valdovinos & Stuardo, 1988) highlight the deficiency in information about ecology, which is still poorly understood and represent critical gaps, especially concerning changes in land use and global warming. These threats represent some of the most important drivers in biodiversity loss of terrestrial and freshwater mollusks worldwide (Beltramino et al, 2015;Cordellier et al, 2012;Lydeard et al, 2004;Pearce & Paustian, 2013;Régnier et al, 2009Régnier et al, , 2015.…”
