Understanding why some groups of organisms are more diverse than others is a central goal in macroevolution. Evolvability, or the intrinsic capacity of lineages for evolutionary change, is thought to influence disparities in species diversity across taxa. Over macroevolutionary time scales, clades that exhibit high evolvability are expected to have higher speciation rates. Cone snails (family: Conidae, $>$900 spp.) provide a unique opportunity to test this prediction because their toxin genes can be used to characterize differences in evolvability between clades. Cone snails are carnivorous, use prey-specific venom (conotoxins) to capture prey, and the genes that encode venom are known and diversify through gene duplication. Theory predicts that higher gene diversity confers a greater potential to generate novel phenotypes for specialization and adaptation. Therefore, if conotoxin gene diversity gives rise to varying levels of evolvability, conotoxin gene diversity should be coupled with macroevolutionary speciation rates. We applied exon capture techniques to recover phylogenetic markers and conotoxin loci across 314 species, the largest venom discovery effort in a single study. We paired a reconstructed timetree using 12 fossil calibrations with species-specific estimates of conotoxin gene diversity and used trait-dependent diversification methods to test the impact of evolvability on diversification patterns. Surprisingly, we did not detect any signal for the relationship between conotoxin gene diversity and speciation rates, suggesting that venom evolution may not be the rate-limiting factor controlling diversification dynamics in Conidae. Comparative analyses showed some signal for the impact of diet and larval dispersal strategy on diversification patterns, though detection of a signal depended on the dataset and the method. If our results remain true with increased taxonomic sampling in future studies, they suggest that the rapid evolution of conid venom may cause other factors to become more critical to diversification, such as ecological opportunity or traits that promote isolation among lineages.

CONTINENTAL drift ,CURRENT distribution ,NEOGASTROPODA ,PHYLOGENY ,PALEOCENE Epoch - Abstract
Mud snails (family Nassariidae) represent a highly diversified lineage within the superfamily Buccinoidea. Recent molecular phylogenies contradicted in some instances the traditional nassariid classification and revealed important levels of homoplasy in phenotypic characters. In order to clarify the boundaries of the family Nassariidae, as well as to inquire on the diversification of the cosmopolitan Nassariinae, a robust phylogenetic framework is needed. Here, the near-complete mitogenomes of 31 species representing almost all lineages of Nassariidae plus several buccinoid outgroups were sequenced. All mitogenomes of buccinoids shared the same gene order, which is identical to the consensus reported for caenogastropods. The monophyly of Nassariidae as previously defined was not confirmed. The reconstructed phylogeny revealed distant relationships between the genera Cyllene, Anentome, Tomlinia, Engoniophos, Phos and Antillophos and the majority of nassariids, represented by Nassariinae + Bullia. Within Nassariinae, a robust phylogeny, which recognized a total of seven regional groups, was reconstructed. The West Atlantic/Mediterranean genus Tritia was divided into three clades. The biogeographical analysis together with the inferred chronogram suggested that Nassariinae might have originated during the late Paleocene in the Indo-Pacific region. Subsequent climate change and continental drift events triggered diversification within the subfamily, leading to the worldwide distribution of current genera. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Calliostoma Swainson, 1840, as currently conceived, is the most species-rich genus of the order Trochida, with over 350 recognized species worldwide. The shell variability in these vetigastropods is extremely high, resulting in conflicting taxonomic attributions at both the genus and species levels. In the Mediterranean Sea, the remarkable morphological diversity of the Calliostoma top shells has led to the description of dozens of different taxa, of which nine are currently accepted. This taxonomic framework was tested using an iterative taxonomic approach. Species delimitation (using assemble species by automatic partitioning, clade monophyly and Kimura-2-parameter distances) and phylogenetic analyses (maximum likelihood and Bayesian inference) were carried out on 247 specimens from the Mediterranean and neighbouring Atlantic, including eight Mediterranean species and the Azorean C. lividum , spanning a large part of the morphological diversity and geographic distribution of the genus in the area. The molecular dataset comprised one nuclear marker, internal transcribed spacer 2 (ITS 2), and two mitochondrial markers (cytochrome c oxidase subunit 1 and 16S ribosomal RNA). Results indicate that the number of species is overestimated, as only C. conulus, C. granulatum, C. zizyphinum and C. laugieri are supported by molecular data among the assessed species. It is suggested that the morphological characters commonly used to diagnose species are variable within a single taxon, as three nominal taxa, allegedly endemic to the Mediterranean Sea, are here shown to be a single genetic species (C. laugieri). An ITS 2 2D folding structure is also reported as potentially distinctive for calliostomatids, compared to known Vetigastropoda. Our study indicates that to address the taxonomy of calliostomatid top shells, an integrative approach including molecular data is highly advisable to support species delimitation and especially new species description.

ANTHOZOA ,GASTROPODA ,CNIDARIA ,OCTOCORALLIA ,FOSSILS ,HYDROZOA - Abstract
Introduction: Host-parasite associations provide very useful models to study adaptive processes. We investigated the interaction between carnivorous marine gastropods, the Ovulidae or egg-cowries, and their cnidarian food targets. Ovulidae (Fleming, 1828), is a family of specialized carnivorous caenogastropods that feed by browsing on octocorals (Anthozoa: Octocorallia: Malacalcyonacea and Scleralcyonacea) or, to a much lesser degree, on antipatharians (Anthozoa: Hexacorallia: Antipatharia) and Stylasteridae (Hydrozoa: Hydroidolina: Anthoathecata). Very scanty information is available on the phylogenetic relationships and the degree of specificity of the relationship with the cnidarians of this corallivorous lineage, especially for deepwater taxa. Methods: To assess taxonomic identifications and investigate cnidarian/ovulid relationships in the context of their evolution, we generated an extensive molecular dataset comprising two mitochondrial (cox1 and 16S rDNA) and one nuclear gene (28S rDNA) from 524 specimens collected worldwide. The coral hosts of the ovulid species have been identified by integrating literature data with new records, employing morphological and/or molecular (the mitochondrial 16S rDNA and mtMSH, and the nuclear ITS2) markers. Results: We obtained a molecular phylogenetic framework for the Ovulidae, time-calibrated with nine reliable fossil records. An ancestral state reconstruction allowed to identify Hexacorallia or Hydroidolina as the most likely ancestral cnidarian host for the Ovulidae. Discussion: Our phylogenetic hypothesis revealed the existence of groups that do not completely correspond to the currently employed subfamilial arrangement. Concerning trophic ecology, while only pediculariines (Pedicularia and allied) are associated with hydrozoans (Stylasteridae), our results suggest that some ovulid lineages shifted independently between octocorals and hexacorals.

- Abstract
The present work reviews the deep-water cone fauna of New Caledonia and its Economic Exclusive Zone. It is based on the material collected for more than 40 years by oceanographic expeditions in the deep waters surrounding New Caledonia, organized by the Muséum national d’histoire naturelle-Paris/ORSTOM, then Institut de Recherche pour le Développement, in the framework of the Tropical Deep-Sea Benthos programme. A total of 2377 lots containing 5113 specimens collected in depths between 100 and 1260 m have been examined. About 770 specimens were collected live, and allowed for radular and DNA studies. A phylogenetic analysis, based on the cox1 gene, of the deep-water cone snail fauna of New Caledonia is presented, along with a detailed, fully illustrated taxonomic account with data on geographic and bathymetric distribution and radular morphology. A total of 76 different species of cone snails were identified among the collected material. Of these, 22 corresponded to typical shallow water species, which were most likely translocated into deeper water, whereas 54 could be considered true components of the deep water (below 100 m) cone snail fauna. Species of the genus Profundiconus represent 22%, whereas those of the genera Conasprella and Conus represent 28% and 50%, respectively. Eleven deep water cone species can be considered as endemic to the New Caledonia EEZ, representing 20.3% of the total. The most abundant species found (more than 400 specimens each) were Conus (Afonsoconus) bruuni, Conasprella (Boucheticonus) alisi, Conasprella (Conasprella) boucheti, and Profundiconus vaubani. The new species Conus (Taranteconus) samadiae sp. nov. is hereby described.

The diversity of venomous organisms and the toxins they produce have been increasingly investigated, but taxonomic bias remains important. Neogastropods, a group of marine predators representing almost 22% of the known gastropod diversity, evolved a wide range of feeding strategies, including the production of toxins to subdue their preys. However, whether the diversity of these compounds is at the origin of the hyperdiversification of the group and how genome evolution may correlate with both the compounds and species diversities remain understudied. Among the available gastropods genomes, only eight, with uneven quality assemblies, belong to neogastropods. Here, we generated chromosome-level assemblies of two species belonging to the Tonnoidea and Muricoidea superfamilies (Monoplex corrugatus and Stramonita haemastoma). The two obtained high-quality genomes had 3 and 2.2 Gb, respectively, and 92–89% of the total assembly conformed 35 pseudochromosomes in each species. Through the analysis of syntenic blocks, Hox gene cluster duplication, and synonymous substitutions distribution pattern, we inferred the occurrence of a whole genome duplication event in both genomes. As these species are known to release venom, toxins were annotated in both genomes, but few of them were found in homologous chromosomes. A comparison of the expression of ohnolog genes (using transcriptomes from osphradium and salivary glands in S. haemastoma), where both copies were differentially expressed, showed that most of them had similar expression profiles. The high quality of these genomes makes them valuable reference in their respective taxa, facilitating the identification of genome-level processes at the origin of their evolutionary success.

- Abstract
The superfamily Buccinoidea is distributed across the oceans of the world from the Arctic Ocean to the Antarctic and from intertidal to abyssal depths. It encompasses 3351 recent species in 337 genera. The latest taxonomic account recognized eight full families. For the first time, the monophyly of the superfamily and the relationships among the families are tested with molecular data supplemented by anatomical and radula data. Five genetic markers were used: fragments of mitochondrial COI, 16S rRNA, 12S rRNA and nuclear Histone 3 (H3) and 28S rRNA genes (for 225 species of 117 genera). Our analysis recovered Buccinoidea monophyletic in Bayesian analyses. The relationships between the formerly recognized families and subfamilies are drastically revised and a new classification of the superfamily is here proposed, now including 20 taxa of family rank and 23 subfamilies. Five new families (Chauvetiidae, Dolicholatiridae, Eosiphonidae, Prodotiidae and Retimohniidae) and one subfamily of Nassariidae (Tomliniinae) are described. Austrosiphonidae and Tudiclidae are resurrected from synonymy and employed in a new taxonomical extension. All but 40 recent genera are reclassified. Our results demonstrate that anatomy is rather uniform within the superfamily. With exceptions, the rather uniform radular morphology alone does not allow the allocation of genera to a particular family without additional molecular data.

- Abstract
The family Cocculinidae (Gastropoda: Cocculinida) consists of small, usually colourless benthic limpets living primarily at depths below 100 m, and on decaying plant or animal remains. These habitats are difficult to sample and the knowledge about Cocculinidae species diversity, biogeography, ecology and evolution is therefore poor. To explore the species diversity of the Cocculinidae, we examined 499 specimens collected from 196 sites, mainly explored during expeditions of the ‘Tropical Deep-Sea Benthos’ programme in the Indo-West Pacific (IWP). To propose a species hypotheses, we used an integrated approach to taxonomy in which we combined DNA-based methods, with morphological, geographical and ecological considerations. To classify the species hypotheses into genera, we used a combination of one mitochondrial and two nuclear gene fragments to reconstruct a phylogenetic tree. We then used six morphological characters to diagnose the identified genera. Our results revealed an exceptionally high diversity of IWP Cocculinidae, with 51 species hypotheses that were mostly not assigned to available species names. We also discovered a previously unknown type of copulatory structure in the group. At a higher taxonomic level, we identified ten main clades in the family. Although six of them matched existing genera, four others should be regarded as new genera awaiting formal description.

Sibogasyrinx clausura sp. nov. (= PSH 10) urn:lsid:zoobank.org:act: 27ED0BF0-C78A-41E1-9064-E3EB0492864A Figs 10D–M, 11A–B Diagnosis Shell medium-sized, reaching 41.5 mm in length, fusiform, subsutural ramp concave on upper teleoconch whorls, weakly so on last whorl, nearly smooth (except for the axial riblets), shoulder bearing nodules on spire whorls, absent on last whorl. Spiral sculpture of weak, closely spaced cords on and below shoulder. Radula with central tooth and longitudinally folded marginal teeth with weakly thickened edges. Etymology Latin ‘ clausura ’ (noun in apposition), meaning ‘lockdown’, with reference to the sanitary restrictions associated with SARS-COV-2 that prevailed over much of the World when this manuscript was finalized.

SL 41.4 mm, AL (with canal) 23.0 mm, AL (without canal) 13.7 mm, SW 12.4 mm. SHELL (holotype). Moderately thick, slightly glossy, strong except for fragile and partially broken outer aperture lip, narrowly fusiform, with high spire and moderately long, straight siphonal canal. Protoconch small, globose, of about 1.5 strongly convex, eroded whorls. Protoconch/teleoconch transition marked by strongly arcuate axial rib, corresponding to shape of growth lines, followed by 10 thinner and weaker axial ribs and rather thickened growth lines. Protoconch diameter 1.0 mm, height 0.84 mm. Spire whorls distinctly angled at shoulder, last whorl with scarcely discernible shoulder. Total teleoconch whorls just over 8. Suture shallowly impressed, subsutural ramp broad, concave, on last whorl weakly concave. Subsutural region with a row of distinct, dense, narrow, short, prosocline axial wrinkles, corresponding to upper parts of thickened growth lines, extending from suture to upper ⅓ of ramp, increasing in number from 22 on first whorl to 42 on penultimate and 50 on last whorl. Shoulder of teleoconch whorls (except last one) with a row of distinct opisthoclinely elongated nodules, extending to abapical suture and intersected by spiral cords, increasing in number from 13 on first whorl to 21 on antepenultimate and penultimate whorls. Subsutural ramp smooth except for axial wrinkles mentioned above. Spiral cords intersecting shoulder nodules beginning on 2 rd teleoconch whorls (due to corrosion of shell their number is unclear) and becoming progressively stronger, 7 on antepenultimate and 8 on penultimate whorl. Cords closely spaced with intervals about half the width of cords. On last whorl cords covering entire shell surface below indistinct shoulder, about 40 cords in total, of which 20 on canal. Cords weak, slightly wavy, very closely spaced just below suture and with intervals 0.5–1.0 times cord width on shell base and canal. Shell base gradually narrowing towards narrow, nearly straight siphonal canal. Aperture narrow, constricted posteriorly, with narrow, moderately thick parietal callus, outer lip partially broken, evenly convex and weakly concave at transition to canal. Anal sinus shallow, subsutural, broadly arcuate, confluent with large forward extension of outer lip as deduced from growth lines. Shell off-white, with slightly darker subsutural ramp, protoconch light tan. Periostracum smooth, retained between cords and ribs. ANATOMY (n = 1; MNHN-IM-2009-16763). Male. Penis obliquely truncated at tip with short, large, conical papilla occupying entire anterior part of penis, surrounded by circular fold.Eyes present.Proboscis moderately long, conical, with expanded base. Proboscis retractors not defined, entire posterior part of proboscis base muscular. Salivary glands small, not fused, with very long ducts that run within walls of oesophagus. Buccal mass moderately large, about ⅓ of proboscis length, basal, protruding backwards beyond proboscis base, radular sac lying outside proboscis. Venom gland very large, thick and strongly convoluted, very constricted before opening into oesophagus in region of nerve ring. Muscular bulb moderately large. RADULA (n = 1; MNHN-IM-2009-16763, AL 10.6 mm) (Fig. 11A–B). Relatively short, comprising 38 rows of teeth, 16 nascent. Radula length 1.65 mm (15.5% of AL without canal), width up to 250 μm (2.35% of AL without canal). Central tooth with basal plate, having distinct anterior and lateral borders and long, narrow, sharply-pointed cusp. Anterior margin overlapped by preceding row, posterior margin almost evenly rounded except for narrow protrusion adjoining cusp. Marginal teeth flat when formed, becoming trough-shaped with weakly thickened edges during maturation, folded longitudinally when fully formed, with both margins overlapping at tooth tip. The resulting folded tooth is moderately broad with a sharp pointed tip, border between margins appears as a narrow groove along anterior edge. Tooth folding occurs within 15–16 th row of teeth (counting from rear). Remarks The other specimens are very similar to the holotype in shell shape and sculpture. In some specimens there is very indistinct spiral striation on the subsutural ramp and a single very weak spiral cord may even be present. This species is most similar to Sibogasyrinx maximei sp. nov., but differs in having more numerous and narrower subsutural axial wrinkles (50 vs 43 on last whorl and 42 vs 34 on penultimate one) and less numerous (40 vs 50) spiral cords on the last whorl, the holotypes of both species being of almost the same size. Nevertheless, S. maximei sp. nov. is only represented in our material by a single specimen and thus its intraspecific variability remains unknown. The two species are broadly sympatric in the Solomon Islands, but are clearly differentiated in our molecular analysis. Distribution This species occurs in the Solomon Islands, New South Wales and on the Coriolis Bank in the Coral Sea, at 762–1060 m. This bathymetric range corresponds to a single haul in the Solomon Islands, while all other specimens were collected at 960–1000 m, indicating a narrower bathymetric range for the species.

Description MEASUREMENTS (largest specimen). SL 65.2 mm, AL (with canal) 35.1 mm, AL (without canal) 21.0 mm, SW 18.5 mm. SHELL. Moderately thick, strong except for fragile outer aperture lip, fusiform, with high spire and long, narrow, straight siphonal canal. Protoconch small, globose, of about 1.5 strongly convex, microshagreened whorls, eroded or missing in all specimens. Early teleoconch whorls weakly to moderately angular at shoulder. Largest available specimen (SL 65.2 mm) of 10.3 teleoconch whorls. Suture shallowly impressed, subsutural ramp broad, weakly concave to flat. All teleoconch whorls with a subsutural row of nodules, corresponding in shape to upper parts of thickened growth lines. Nodules more distinct on upper whorls, increasing in number, up to 30 on penultimate whorl and 37 on last whorl in largest specimen. Subsutural ramp may be completely smooth, or sometimes with very weak spiral striation or dendritic lines. Shoulder with pronounced thickened and rounded nodules, reaching lower suture, weakly opisthocline on upper whorls and more strongly inclined and confluent with growth lines on lower whorls. Nodules evanesce on last and even penultimate whorls at SL over 50 mm and shoulder becomes evenly rounded; their number increase with size from 14–15 on upper whorls to 21–22 on lower whorls. Spiral sculpture of 3–6 moderately pronounced, closely spaced narrow cords on shoulder, crossing shoulder nodules on spire whorls. Last whorl below shoulder with 40–45 cords varying in width, their intervals 0.5–2 times width of cords, also distinct on canal. Shell base gradually narrowing towards long, narrow, nearly straight siphonal canal. Aperture narrow, constricted posteriorly, with narrow and thin parietal callus, outer lip with rounded angle at shoulder, weakly convex below shoulder and weakly concave at transition to canal. Anal sinus moderately deep, subsutural, broadly arcuate, confluent with large forward extension of outer lip. Shell off-white with very light yellowish subsutural band, protoconch pale tan. Periostracum persists on part of shell, light yellowish. ANATOMY. Foregut similar to that of Sibogasyrinx cf. pyramidalis 2 (see below), except for presence of a large oval accessory salivary gland, adjoining oesophagus, with rather thick duct, entering proboscis and following along its wall. RADULA (n = 2; MNHN-IM-2009-13451, MNHN-IM-2013-50215). Comprising approximately 40 rows of teeth, 15 nascent, short, length ca 2.5 mm (15% of AL without canal). Radula width up to 530 μm (3.3% of AL without canal). Central tooth with broad, subrectangular basal plate and anteriorly broadly concave, borders distinct and with narrow but rather long, sharply pointed cusp. Marginal teeth with strongly thickened posterior edges, folded longitudinally. When immature, teeth nearly flat with elevated posterior edge, on developing part of radular tooth folding clearly visible (on Fig. 4A not fully folded teeth are marked by white arrows), bringing posterior and anterior edges close together. During tooth maturation the edges, particularly posterior one, progressively thicken, so that fully formed tooth appears duplex (Fig. 4B).

Sibogasyrinx archibenthalis (Powell, 1969) Fig. 3R–T Leucosyrinx (Sibogasyrinx) archibenthalis Powell, 1969: 344, pl. 264 figs 6–7. Material examined Holotype PHILIPPINES • Mindanao I., Iligan Bay, Tabu Point; 08°16′45″ N, 124°02′49″ E; depth 924 m; R/V Albatross, stn 5513; USNM 238773. Description MEASUREMENTS (holotype). SL 41.8 mm. SHELL. Fusiform, narrow, with high, very narrow, flat-sided spire and relatively short, almost straight, un-notched siphonal canal. Protoconch small, globose, of 1.5 smooth whorls. Teleoconch of 12 whorls. Spire whorl profile quite straight and descending steeply to a narrowly rounded, flange-like, peripheral carina, abutting lower suture. Last whorl distinctly angled by peripheral carina, and base rapidly contracting toward moderately long anterior canal. Axial sculpture of rounded peripheral nodules, about 13 per whorl, but these become obsolete on last two whorls; subsutural nodules or folds lacking. Spiral sculpture of dense well defined and regular spiral cords, 11–12 on subsutural ramp. Anal sinus moderately deep, subsutural, broadly arcuate, confluent with large forward extension of outer lip. Colour opaque white, covered by a thin pale buff periostracum. Remarks The species is known only from the holotype. In shell shape it is most similar to S. pyramidalis. The differences are most obvious when comparing specimens of the same size (e.g., Fig.3 D–F and 3R); the last whorl is lower and the canal is proportionally much shorter in S. archibenthalis, while the spiral cords on the subsutural ramp are more pronounced and are of the same strength as on the remaining part of the last whorl. The last whorl is more angular in S. archibenthalis and the shell has a higher number of teleoconch whorls; in the holotype of S. archibenthalis the number of teleoconch whorls is 12 (SL 43 mm), compared with 9.5 (SL 46.8 mm) in samples of S. cf. pyramidalis 1 from the Philippines of similar shell size. Therefore, at present we consider S. archibenthalis to be a valid species., Published as part of Kantor, Yuri I. & Puillandre, Nicolas, 2021, Rare, deep-water and similar: revision of Sibogasyrinx (Conoidea: Cochlespiridae), pp. 19-60 in European Journal of Taxonomy 773 on page 35, DOI: 10.5852/ejt.2021.773.1509, http://zenodo.org/record/5536301, {"references":["Powell A.

Moderately thick, strong except for fragile and partially broken outer aperture lip, fusiform, with high, conical spire and moderately long, broad, straight siphonal canal. Protoconch small, globose, of about 1.5 strongly convex, microshagreened whorls. Protoconch/teleoconch transition marked by strongly arcuate axial rib, corresponding to shape of growth line. Protoconch diameter 1.0 mm, height 0.83 mm. Spire whorls weakly angled at shoulder, last whorl with hardly discernible shoulder. Total teleoconch whorls 8.5. Suture shallowly impressed, subsutural ramp broad, weakly concave on first four teleoconch whorls, flat on later whorls. Subsutural ramp with short, distinct, prosocline axial wrinkles, corresponding to upper parts of thickened growth lines, extending from suture to upper ⅓ of ramp, increasing in number from 20 on first whorl to 34 on penultimate and 43 on last whorl. Subsutural ramp with only traces of indistinct spiral striation. Shoulder of teleoconch whorls (except last one) with a row of distinct elongated nodules, these nearly orthocline on upper whorls and weakly opisthocline on penultimate whorl, 14–17 per whorl, reaching lower suture and intersected by spiral cords. Starting from 2 nd teleoconch whorl, spiral cords appearing on shoulder, these intersecting nodules and becoming progressively stronger, from two on 2 nd whorl to nine on penultimate one. Cords very closely spaced, separated by narrow grooves. On last whorl cords cover entire shell surface below indistinct shoulder, about 50 cords in total, of which 25 on canal. Cords weak, slightly wavy, very closely spaced just below suture and with intervals 0.5–1.0 times width of cords on shell base and canal. Shell base gradually narrowing towards moderately broad, almost straight siphonal canal. Aperture narrow, constricted posteriorly, with narrow and very thin parietal callus, outer lip partially broken, evenly convex and weakly concave at transition to canal. Anal sinus moderately deep, subsutural, broadly arcuate, confluent with large forward extension of outer lip. Shell very light yellowish, protoconch light tan. Periostracum smooth, tightly adhering.

Central tooth with basal plate, having distinct borders and long, narrow, sharp cusp, anterior margin overlapped by preceding row, posterior margin formed by two straight sections meeting at obtuse angle in midline. Marginal teeth flat when formed, becoming trough-shaped with weakly thickened edges during maturation, folded longitudinally when fully formed, with both margins overlapping at tooth tip. Resulting folded tooth moderately broad with sharply pointed tip, border between both margins present as a narrow slit at anterior edge. Tooth folding occurring within 14 th row of teeth (counting from rear). Remarks The species is known from the holotype alone and is very similar to Sibogasyrinx clausura sp. nov. (for comparison see remarks under the following species). In shell outline it is very similar to S. cf. pyramidalis 1 and 2, but differs in having fewer nodules on the shoulder; the holotype has 17 nodules on the penultimate whorl, whereas specimens of S. cf. pyramidalis 1 and 2 of similar size have up to 26 nodules.

Description MEASUREMENTS. Largest available specimen (MNHN-IM-2007-42498): SL 49.9 mm, AL (with canal) 28 mm, AL (without canal) 16.7 mm, SW 13.5 mm. Holotype has SL 52 mm. SHELL. Moderately thick, strong except for fragile and often partially broken outer aperture lip, narrowly fusiform, with high spire and long, narrow, straight siphonal canal. Protoconch small, globose, of just over 1.5 strongly convex, microshagreened whorls (MNHN-IM-2009-16831). Protoconch/teleoconch transition indistinct, marked by appearance of shoulder carina. Protoconch diameter 0.89 mm, height 0.72 mm. Spire whorls strongly angled at shoulder, last whorl with more rounded shoulder. Total teleoconch whorls just under 9 in largest specimen. Suture shallowly impressed on last whorl and rather deep on spire ones, subsutural ramp moderately broad, strongly concave. Subsutural region with a row of distinct narrow axial ribs, confluent with growth lines and forming small nodules at intersections with spiral cords, absent on most of first teleoconch whorl, about 20 on second–third whorls, about 35 on penultimate and 45 on last whorl. Subsutural ramp with spiral cords, first visible on second whorl and distinct on fourth whorl. Last, penultimate and antepenultimate whorls with 4–5 distinct cords on subsutural ramp, their intervals equal to width of cords, followed below shoulder by 5–7 more narrow, closely spaced cords. Shoulder with row of pronounced rounded nodules, more distinct on upper teleoconch whorls and absent on last whorl, 15–17 on penultimate and antepenultimate whorls. Spiral sculpture in addition to cords on subsutural ramp of distinct narrow cords, covering entire shell surface, including shoulder nodules. On last whorl about 45 cords below shoulder, 25 of which on canal. Cords weakly rounded or flat on top, their intervals mostly narrower than cords themselves, rarely equal to or even slightly wider than cords. Shell base gradually narrowing towards long, narrow, almost straight siphonal canal. Aperture narrow, constricted posteriorly, with very narrow and thin parietal callus, outer lip with rounded angle at shoulder, weakly convex below shoulder, weakly concave at transition to canal. Anal sinus moderately deep, subsutural, broadly arcuate, confluent with large forward extension of outer lip. Shell light orange with lighter middle part of last whorl, in sequenced specimens off-white, with very light yellowish subsutural ramp and irregular darker blotches on subsutural ramp. Protoconch light tan. ANATOMY (n = 1; MNHN-IM-2009-16831). Head with moderately long, conical tentacles, rounded on tips and with closely spaced bases, large eyes situated on small lobes at tentacle base. Proboscis conical, moderately long, with broad base, rapidly narrowing towards tip. Proboscis retractors not defined, entire posterior part of very thin proboscis sheath base weakly muscular. Buccal mass very large and broad, posterior to proboscis base, constituting about half of proboscis length, oesophagus forming a very short loop before nerve ring. Radular sac with small odontophore, opening dorso-laterally at right side of buccal mass. Venom gland thick, moderately long and convoluted, opening into oesophagus within nerve ring. Muscular bulb moderately large, elongated and folded in posterior part. Salivary glands fused, relatively large, of irregular shape, acinous. Small ovate accessory salivary gland situated dorsally at nerve ring. RADULA (n = 1; MNHN-IM-2009-16831) (Fig. 8C). Relatively short, consisting of 41 rows of teeth, 15 nascent. Radula length 1.55 mm (12% of AL without canal), width up to 225 μm (1.8% of AL without canal). Central tooth with subrectangular basal plate, having distinct borders and moderately long cusp. Anterior margin overlapped by preceding row, posterior margin evenly and weakly rounded. Marginal teeth flat when formed, becoming trough-shaped with weakly thickened edges during maturation, folded longitudinally when fully formed, with both margins overlapping at tooth tip. Resulting folded tooth moderately broad, with sharp pointed tip, anterior edge with a narrow slit between folded tooth margins. Remarks Our specimens are very similar to the holotype and paratype (except lighter shells) and were collected close to the type locality. Our specimens were collected at much shallower depths (150–508 m) as compared to the holotype and paratype (1100 m). Nevertheless, the strong similarity of the shell shape and sculpture, especially obvious when comparing the holotype with sequenced specimen of the same size (Fig. 9A–B and C–D) suggests the conspecifity of our and the type specimens. Ardovini (2021) himself considered the specimen MNHN-IM-2007-42498 as belonging to his newly described species based on the photograph on the MNHN website. Smaller specimens (SL 34.4 and 29.9 mm) retain smooth, flaking, yellowish periostracum, better preserved in interspaces between cords. This species is most similar to Sibogasyrinx subula sp. nov., but differs in having more strongly developed spiral cords on the subsutural ramp, a relatively narrower ramp resulting in a higher shoulder position on the spire whorls, a different radula and the presence of eyes. In shell outline the new species resembles some species of Leucosyrinx, particularly Leucosyrinx sp. A (Fig. 13H), but the shell is broader with more numerous nodules on the shoulder. Compared to Leucosyrinx sp. F (Fig. 13K), the shell of S. filosa is larger, broader and has a coarser sculpture.

Sibogasyrinx lolae sp. nov. (= PSH 8) urn:lsid:zoobank.org:act: 73404289-ED57-4ABD-A0D0-05939F095C40 Figs 8D, 9I–Q Diagnosis Shell medium-sized, reaching 43 mm in length, fusiform, with weakly concave, nearly smooth subsutural ramp and nodules on shoulder of upper teleoconch whorls, absent on later whorls of large specimens. Spiral sculpture weak, of closely spaced cords covering entire shell except subsutural ramp in some specimens. Radula with central tooth and longitudinally folded marginal teeth with weakly thickened edges. Etymology The species is named after Lola, the daughter of the second author.

Description MEASUREMENTS (holotype). SL 37.3 mm, AL (with canal) 22.9 mm, AL (without canal) 14.5 mm, SW 11.3 mm. SHELL (holotype). Moderately thick, glossy, strong except for very fragile and partially broken outer aperture lip, narrowly fusiform, with high spire and long, narrow, straight siphonal canal. Protoconch small, globose, corroded, of about 1.5 whorls. Protoconch preserved in other juvenile specimen (MNHN-IM-2013-48156), comprising just over 1.5 strongly convex, microshagreened whorls. Protoconch/teleoconch transition indistinct, marked by appearance of axial ribs. Protoconch diameter 1.0 mm, height 0.74 mm. Spire whorls angled at shoulder, last whorl with less angular shoulder. Total teleoconch whorls just under 8. Suture shallowly impressed on last whorl and rather deep on spire whorls, subsutural ramp moderately broad, weakly concave on upper teleoconch whorls and nearly flat on penultimate and last whorls. Subsutural ramp with distinct prosocline axial wrinkles, extending from suture to upper ⅔ of ramp, 22–23 on first and second whorls, 24 on penultimate and 31 on last whorl, and without spiral sculpture on upper four whorls and later with indistinct spiral cords, three on last whorl. Shoulder of teleoconch whorls (except last one) with a row of distinct, opisthoclinely elongated nodules, intersected by weak spiral cords. Seventeen nodules on first teleoconch whorl, 18 on antepenultimate and penultimate whorls. Weak spiral cords on and below shoulder, starting from 3 rd teleoconch whorls, about twice as wide below shoulder. Penultimate whorl with four cords on shoulder and four below shoulder. Shoulder smooth on last whorl, but with about 55 cords below shoulder, of which 25 on canal. Cords weak, slightly wavy and closely spaced, their intervals about half the width of cords. Shell base gradually narrowing towards long, narrow, nearly straight siphonal canal. Aperture narrow, constricted posteriorly, with narrow, very thin parietal callus, outer lip badly broken, distinctly impressed at shoulder, weakly convex below shoulder and shallowly concave at transition to canal. Anal sinus judging from growth lines shallow, subsutural, broadly arcuate, confluent with forward extension of outer lip. Shell very light yellowish, protoconch very light tan (in holotype) and light brown in MNHN-IM-2013-48156. ANATOMY (n = 1; MNHN-IM-2009-29311). Male. Penis tip obliquely truncated, with long and very narrow papilla, surrounded by circular fold, much larger in diameter than papilla itself. Proboscis conical, moderately long, with broad base, anterior half rapidly narrowing towards tip. Proboscis retractors distinct, arranged in two symmetrical lateral bundles, attached to inner proboscis walls at border of its posterior third. Buccal mass with small radular sac, odontophore situated within proboscis in its broader posterior part; elongate oval, occupying slightly less than half of proboscis length. Single small accessory salivary gland present. Salivary glands separate, acinous, irregular in shape. Venom gland long, moderately thick and convoluted, opening into oesophagus within the nerve ring. RADULA (n = 1; MNHN-IM-2009-29311) (Fig. 8D). Short, comprising 28 rows of teeth, 13 nascent. Radula length 1.15 mm (7.9% of AL without canal), width up to 255 μm (1.8% of AL without canal), tooth length 160 μm (1.10% of AL without canal). Central tooth with subrectangular basal plate, having distinct borders and long, narrow, sharp cusp. Anterior margin overlapped by preceding row, posterior margin formed by two straight sections meeting at obtuse angle in midline. Marginal teeth flat when formed, becoming trough-shaped with weakly thickened edges during maturation, folded longitudinally when fully formed, with both margins overlapping at tooth tip. Resulting folded tooth moderately broad, with sharp pointed tip, anterior edge with a narrow slit between tooth margins. Tooth folding occurring within 15 th row of teeth. Remarks The largest specimen attains 43.1 mm. Other specimens are similar to the holotype in shell shape, although some have much more pronounced spiral sculpture, especially MNHN-IM-2009-29230, which also retains spiral cords on the shoulder of the last whorl. In shell shape and sculpture the new species is most similar to Sibogasyrinx filosa, some specimens being almost indistinguishable (e.g., holotype of S. filosa and MNHN-IM-2009-29230). Sibogasyrinx lolae sp. nov. can be distinguished from S. filosa due to its generally less distinct spiral sculpture and less concave, nearly flat subsutural ramp. Other conchologically similar species are S. cf. pyramidalis 1 and 2, but these differ in their radular morphology. In both these species and S. lolae sp. nov., the nodules on the shoulder become less pronounced or disappear on later whorls. Nevertheless, the nodules are still pronounced on the shoulder of the last whorl in specimens of S. cf. pyramidalis 1 and 2 of the same size as specimens of S. lolae sp. nov. which already lack nodules on the last whorl. Distribution This species is recorded from the Solomon Islands, the Coral Sea and southern New Caledonia, at depths of 460– 787 m., Published as part of Kantor, Yuri I. & Puillandre, Nicolas, 2021, Rare, deep-water and similar: revision of Sibogasyrinx (Conoidea: Cochlespiridae), pp. 19-60 in European Journal of Taxonomy 773 on pages 43-46, DOI: 10.5852/ejt.2021.773.1509, http://zenodo.org/record/5536301, {"references":["Ardovini R. 2021.

Description MEASUREMENTS. Holotype: SL 54.1 mm, AL (with canal) 31.3 mm, AL (without canal) 16.4 mm, SW 14.1 mm. Largest available specimen attains SL 55.8 mm (MNHN-IM-2009-16779; Fig. 7D–E). SHELL. Thin, fragile, variable in shape, from narrowly fusiform to moderately broad (SW/SL ratio from 0.22 to 0.27), with rather high spire and long, narrow, straight siphonal canal. Protoconch small, globose, of 1.75 strongly convex, microshagreened whorls. Protoconch/teleoconch transition indistinct. Protoconch diameter about 1.1 mm, height 1.2 mm. Early teleoconch whorls angular, usually in lower part just above suture, but sometimes at mid-whorl; last whorl strongly to very weakly angled or evenly rounded, even in specimens of the same size. Teleoconch comprising up to 10 whorls. Suture shallow, subsutural ramp with a row of distinct, closely spaced nodules, 10 on first whorl, 14 on second whorl, becoming more broadly spaced and less discernible on later whorls, sometimes obsolete on last whorl of largest specimens. Subsutural zone very weakly concave, nearly straight on penultimate and last whorls, smooth except for a few irregularly spaced and indistinct spiral threads (sometimes oblique), or several rather pronounced flattened spiral cords (Fig. 7J; MNHN-IM-2009-13434). Lower part of whorls with a row of larger, more pronounced nodules, just above suture in upper whorls or sometimes nearer midwhorl. In some specimens nodules absent on last whorl. Last whorl may bear low carina at periphery (in specimens with nodules absent), giving it very weakly angled outline. Below periphery 2–3 distinct spiral cords on penultimate whorl and about 30 cords below carina on last whorl and 20 on canal. Shell base gradually narrowing towards long, nearly straight siphonal canal. Aperture narrow, constricted posteriorly with broad, very thin parietal callus, outer lip partially broken, convex and weakly angled in upper part and slightly convex below shoulder, and shallowly concave at transition to canal. Anal sinus moderately deep, subsutural, broadly arcuate, growth lines confluent with large forward extension of outer lip. Growth lines thin but distinct. Shell uniformly off-white, protoconch light tan. ANATOMY (n = 1, MNHN-IM-2009-16995). Proboscis of moderate length in contracted stage, buccal mass situated outside proboscis. Oesophagus very broad, forming short loop before passing through nerve ring. Venom gland opening into oesophagus ventrally and immediately posterior to nerve ring. RADULA (n = 1, MNHN-IM-2009-16995) (Fig. 8A–B). Relatively short, comprising ca 40 rows of teeth, with long nascent part (15–16 rows). Radula length 2.2 mm (16% of AL without canal), width up to 365 μm (2.7% of AL without canal). Central tooth with subrectangular basal plate, very shallowly arcuate anteriorly, with distinct borders and weak cusp. Marginal teeth flat when formed, becoming trough-shaped during maturation, folded longitudinally when fully formed. On developing part of radula, folding of teeth occurs abruptly, within one subsequent row (on Fig. 8B white arrow indicates last still unfolded tooth, while black arrow with white outline indicate the first folded tooth). Folding evident at 17 th row in radula studied. Resulting folded tooth moderately broad, with sharp pointed tip, formed by overlapping of both thickened margins (on Fig. 8A these overlapping parts are marked by hollow white arrows).
