Moluscos de importĂąncia econĂŽmica no Brasil: III. Subulinidae, Leptinaria unilamellata (Orbigny) (Mollusca, Gastropoda, Pulmonata, Stylommatophora) Molluscs of economic importance in Brasil: III. Subulinidae, Leptinaria unilamellata (Orbigny) (Mollusca, Gastropoda, Pulmonata, Stylommatophora)
<abstract language="eng">An anatomic study of Leptinaria unilamellata (Orbigny, 1835) was made emphasizing the genital system, the pallial chamber the radulae and the mandible. The details of these parts characterize better the species and allow more systematic clarity to the group. The importance of the evolutive cycle of the two trematodes, Postharmostomum gallinum (Witenberg, 1923) and Paratanaisia bragai (Santos, 1934) both parasites of domestic birds in Brazil is accentuated

Bulimulidae (Gastropoda, Stylommatophora) do nordeste do Brasil
<abstract language="eng">Results from studies with Bulimulidae from Northeast Brazil, with special reference to the State of Pernambuco, are presented. About 14 spp., of Bulimulidae s.s. were collected and represent one of the most diversified families of land snails in this area. From these, Drymaeus rufolineatus (DroĂŒet, 1859) and Simpulopsis corrugata, Guppy, 1866, were recorded for the first time in Northeast Brazil and a new subspecies Drymaeus b. goianensis is described. Data of geografic distribution, ecology and shell morphology for each species are given
