“…The mainly Sri Lankan Corillidae only have horizontal plicae. Plectopylidae have a wide distribution from northeastern India through the majority of southeast Asia to Peninsular Malaysia, northern Vietnam and southern Japan (Páll-Gergely and Hunyadi 2013 and references therein).…”

“…Jaeckel (1950) reported two juvenile shells of “ Plectopylis laminifera ” from the debris of an unknown Tonkinese (northern Vietnamese) river. Páll-Gergely and Hunyadi (2013) concluded that juvenile shells of Sinicola jugatoria (Ancey, 1885) (synonym: laminifera ) cannot be distinguished from congeners, that their distribution in China (northern Chongqing, eastern Hubei and Guizhou provinces) lies far from Vietnam, and that it probably does not occur within the country.…”

Vietnamese species from the family Plectopylidae are revised based on the type specimens of all known taxa, more than 600 historical non-type museum lots, and almost 200 newly-collected samples. Altogether more than 7000 specimens were investigated. The revision has revealed that species diversity of the Vietnamese Plectopylidae was previously overestimated. Overall, thirteen species names (anterides Gude, 1909, bavayi Gude, 1901, congesta Gude, 1898, fallax Gude, 1909, gouldingi Gude, 1909, hirsuta Möllendorff, 1901, jovia Mabille, 1887, moellendorffi Gude, 1901, persimilis Gude, 1901, pilsbryana Gude, 1901, soror Gude, 1908, tenuis Gude, 1901, verecunda Gude, 1909) were synonymised with other species. In addition to these, Gudeodiscus hemmeni sp. n. and Gudeodiscus messageri raheemi ssp. n. are described from north-western Vietnam. Sixteen species and two subspecies are recognized from Vietnam. The reproductive anatomy of eight taxa is described. Based on anatomical information, Halongella gen. n. is erected to include Plectopylis schlumbergeri and Plectopylis fruhstorferi. Additionally, the genus Gudeodiscus is subdivided into two subgenera (Gudeodiscus and Veludiscus subgen. n.) on the basis of the morphology of the reproductive anatomy and the radula. The Chinese Gudeodiscus phlyarius werneri Páll-Gergely, 2013 is moved to synonymy of Gudeodiscus phlyarius. A spermatophore was found in the organ situated next to the gametolytic sac in one specimen. This suggests that this organ in the Plectopylidae is a diverticulum. Statistically significant evidence is presented for the presence of calcareous hook-like granules inside the penis being associated with the absence of embryos in the uterus in four genera. This suggests that these probably play a role in mating periods before disappearing when embryos develop. Sicradiscus mansuyi is reported from China for the first time.

“…With this paper all members of the Plectopylidae are revised and figured (Páll-Gergely & Hunyadi 2013;Páll-Gergely & Asami 2014Páll-Gergely et al 2015b, 2015cPáll-Gergely 2018), with the exception of the Taiwanese Sicradiscus ishizakii (Kuroda, 1941) and the Japanese S. hirasei (Pilsbry, 1904). The large amount of morphological and unpublished molecular phylogenetic information made the subdivision of the family into two subfamilies possible.…”

“…The revision of the Chinese species, however, revealed that the western (Burmese) and eastern (Chinese and Vietnamese) species are only distantly related (see Páll-Gergely & Hunyadi 2013). The genus Gudeodiscus was erected for the Vietnamese and Chinese taxa formerly placed in Endoplon.…”

“…The Plectopylidae Möllendorff, 1898 are distributed in Asia from Nepal to southern Japan and from the Chinese provinces of Sichuan, Chongqing and Hubei to the southern edge of northern Vietnam (Gude 1899e;Páll-Gergely & Hunyadi 2013). Members of this family usually have globular to planispiral shells with a width of 5-35 mm and an internal armature situated approximately a quarter whorl behind the aperture, which consists of plicae and lamellae on both the palatal and parietal walls.…”

Many land snail taxa have undergone speciation in the Ryukyu Islands and Taiwan in East Asia. We examined the shell, radular, and genital morphology, and mitochondrial phylogeny of two described Sicradiscus species distributed in Miyako Island and Taiwan, and the newly discovered Sicradiscus pallgergelyi sp. nov. from Iriomote Island. Canonical variate analysis based on adult shell measurements indicated that S. pallgergelyi sp. nov. and the Taiwanese Sicradiscus ishizakii had more similar shell measurements, whereas S. pallgergelyi sp. nov. shared common characteristics of shell sculpture with the Japanese Sicradiscus hirasei. The leave‐one‐out cross‐validation results correctly classified 100%, 71.4%, and 88.0% of S. hirasei, S. ishizakii, and S. pallgergelyi sp. nov., respectively. The radular and genital morphology was similar in these three species. Moreover, molecular phylogenetic analyses showed monophyly of the three species, although the Japanese lineages were more closely related to each other than to the Taiwanese species. Accordingly, the characteristics of shell sculpture are common traits of the two Japanese species, and these findings indicate that shell morphology has significantly diverged in Japan. The different apertural callus lengths among the three species may be an adaptation to predators, and shell flatness may reflect interspecific differences in microhabitats.
