摘要: New morphological, ultrastructural, and molecular techniques have reinvigorated interest in molluscan diversity phylogeny Australia. Research the last two decades has revealed a large fauna of small gastropods, including over 260 species Hydrobiidae. Many are confined to areas, springs associated with Great Artesian Basin. members other snail families, notably Viviparidae Bithyniidae, been found northern River regulation decreased range abundance once common species, particularly Murray-Darling While only four freshwater mollusc taxa officially recognized as "endangered," several others would qualify many warrant protection. Investigations systematics, ecology biology urgently needed facilitate conservation molluscs
