Abstract
Menzella timedrinensis gen. et sp. nov. is described from the Middle Atlas in Morocco. This description increases the known diversity of valvatiform hydrobiids (Hydrobiidae) of Morocco to ten species and eight genera, all known only from Morocco. A key to the genera and a brief overview of the valvatiform hydrobiids of Morocco are also provided.
期刊介绍:
Zoosystematica Rossica is an international journal for publication of papers on any aspects of systematic zoology, in all groups of animals, both extant and fossil, from all over the World. The journal is published in English and focuses on the descriptions of new taxa, revisions and reviews, nomenclature, theories and methods of taxonomy and phylogeny, interesting new faunal records, catalogues and checklists, identification keys, phylogenetic relationships and zoogeography. Faunistic articles are published in a limited way and only if they contain new records for large geographical regions and are important for zoogeography or taxonomy.
