L. simone 4 Abstract A list of Brazilian terrestrial and freshwater gastropod species and genera described from 2006 to 2016 is presented, updating the previous catalogue of simone (2006). Colored photographs of type specimens, as well as information on type material, distribution and taxonomy are also provided. The list encompasses 42 recently described species, largely pulmonates, including 39 terrestrial, and three freshwater taxa. New genera are: Syneancylus gutiérrez gregoriC 2014; Cli- nispira simone & Casati 2013; Habeas simone 2013; Kora simone 2012; Olympus simone 2010; Spiripockia simone 2012 and Vegrandinia salvador, Cunha & simone 2013. The appendix lists native species whose known geographical ranges in Brazil have been extended considerably during this period, as well as those previously unrecognized in Brazil. Keywords: Caenogastropoda, Pulmonata, type locality, type specimens. Introduction In the late 1940s, FrederiCo lange de morretes compiled the irst comprehensive inventory of Recent Brazilian mollusks (morretes 1949). It encompassed molluscan species from every environment and received subsequent corrections and expansions (morretes 1953, oliveira & Castro 1979). This irst catalog listed nearly 1,500 species, over a third of which were terrestrial and freshwater gastropods. The species lists published in the following decades mostly consisted of short regional reports and occurrence notes, with the possible exception of oliveira et al. (1981). Their catalogue, however, was based on the institutional collection of the Universidade Federal de Juiz de Fora (UFJF), which also harbors ex- otic specimens. salgado & Coelho (2003) published the irst broad Brazilian species list since morretes (1949). It was re- stricted to terrestrial gastropods, comprising 590 species, but excluding slugs (e.g., Veronicellidae). Three years later, simone (2006) published an extensive catalogue book of Brazilian terrestrial and freshwater mollusks, with 1,060 valid species. Most of them (948) were gas- tropods. Unlike its predecessors, the book by simone offered an extensive assemblage of colored specimen photographs, mostly including type specimens. It also included information on distribution and an exhaustive bibliographical compilation on each species. Not many Brazilian terrestrial gastropods have been described since the 1950s. It was not until the 2010s that the number of described species increased signiicantly. In this paper, we compile a list of Brazilian terrestrial and fresh- water gastropod species described in the decade following simone’s (2006) catalog, up to 2016. We take the opportu- nity to provide information on species distribution, types, relevant taxonomic changes, and corrections. Authors’ addresses: 1 Universidade Federal do Paraná.
