Abstract

ABSTRACT An analysis of two mitochondrial genes (16S and COI) shows that two genera can be recognised in the Lord Howe Island tateid fauna. Fluviopupa, a widespread Pacific genus, contains the species previously referred to that genus as well as Potamopyrgus oscitans. Species which were previously included in the New Caledonian genus Hemistomia form a clade that is sister to Austropyrgus from south-eastern Australia. The generic name Insuladrobia n. gen. is introduced for that clade. http://zoobank.org/urn:lsid:zoobank.org:pub:75E8D474-47E7-4B4E-B6F1-56924540D9C5
