Imparietula
Lindholm, 1925
Imparietula
Lindholm, 1925
: 30
, 39. Type species (by monotypy):
Bulimus leucodon
L. Pfeiffer, 1846
.
Forcart (1940: 206)
considered
Pseudochondrula
a synonym of
Imparietula
, which was followed by
Gittenberger (1967: 130-137)
,
Akramowski (1976: 154-158)
and
Hausdorf (1999: 153)
.
Schileyko (1984: 288, 306)
separated
Pseudochondrula
from
Imparietula
, which was followed by
Bank & Neubert (1998: 81)
. In his latest edition of the Turkish land snails,
Schütt (2010: 97-99)
also separated
Pseudochondrula
from
Imparietula
, and included the following taxa into the latter genus:
altenai
(
Gittenberger, 1967
),
pelidne
(Biggs, 1946)
,
leucodon
(L. Pfeiffer, 1846)
(with
lasistanicus
as a synonym),
bre- vior
(Mousson, 1876) and
ridvani
Schütt, 1995. Following a taxonomic revision, Páll-Gergely & Bank (in press) raised
lasistanica
(Lindholm, 1914) to species level, and excluded
brevior
as a representative of
Imparietula
. By doing so,
Imparietula
has become a genus that is endemic for the northeastern part of Turkey. We here introduce another species to the genus.
