4511E41DD826FFC2FDCAFA05F388FB39.taxon	diagnosis	Diagnosis Shell small (2.3 - 5.5 mm high), ovate to ovate-acuminate with an acuminate (sometimes coeloconoid or cyrtoconoid) spire; strongly and often sinuously radially ribbed, never smooth. Peristome reflected. Aperture dentate, with at least one parietal and one palatal tooth. Juvenile aperture (known from 7 - 8 species) dentate (except possibly in D. nictitans comb. nov.), aperture not downturned. Radula (known from three species) bearing multicuspid teeth, the outer cusps much smaller than the inner. Other anatomy (known from six species): salivary gland bilobed or Y-shaped. Vas deferens thickened or with diverticulum prior to insertion on penis, penis lacking sheath, with a muscular apex in which is embedded a spatulate scoop with a microscopically serrated tip, usually associated with one or two large apical hooks, and a few (<40) smaller hooks lower down.

4511E41DD826FFC2FDCAFA05F388FB39.taxon	description	Description SHELL (Figs 1 - 64). Small to medium-sized relative to species of Gulella (2.3 - 5.5 mm high x 1.4 - 2.8 mm wide), of 4.5 - 8 whorls. Ovate to ovate-acuminate (maximum width being approximately at middle of shell, usually at penultimate whorl) or subconical (maximum width being in bottom third of the shell, at body whorl). Spire characteristically narrowly to broadly acuminate, occasionally coeloconoid or cyrtoconoid (spire angle 43 - 77 °), angle varying a little within most species. Apex (i. e. top of spire) pointed in most species, but rounded in others. Sutures usually deep, shells never completely smoothsided. Umbilicus closed or narrowly open, this sometimes varying within a species. Embryonic whorls usually smoothly granulate, with fine radial striae in two species, or irregularly punctate in another. The last part of the embryonic shell is sculptured with very fine radial striae in most (possibly all) species but these are worn away in all but the freshest individuals. Later whorls never smooth, with radial ribs (5 - 27 per mm on penultimate whorl) running from suture to suture, often strong and / or sinuous, lamella-like in some species. Peristome complete, or incomplete parietally, always reflected to some extent. Outer palatal surface of aperture with a depression, sometimes furrow-like, corresponding to the palatal tooth, and sometimes another corresponding to the basal tooth. Dentition 3 - fold (rarely, and debatably, 2 - fold) to 8 - fold. Dentition consisting of at least one parietal tooth and one palatal tooth, the latter often slablike and / or bifid, sometimes forming a parieto-palatal sinus. Usually also with one deep-set columellar baffle, folded or sub-bifid or sub-trifid in some species. Often with additional parietal, palatal, basal and / or columellar teeth or denticles. Dentition is variable in some species but the form, as well as the number, of the teeth is often consistent enough to distinguish species. Juvenile shells (known from 7 - 8 species) always with 3 - fold to 4 - fold apertural dentition (Figs 43 - 50) except in one species, D. nictitans comb. nov., where the only known juvenile has no teeth. In several species, some or all of the teeth in juvenile shells appear to be resorbed at intervals. CEPHALOPODIUM. Pale cream or yellow, usually with apricot-coloured to orange tentacle retractors and sometimes with brown speckles on the mantle. PALLIAL COMPLEX. Sigmurethrous, with long zone of contact between long, oblong kidney and hindgut, pulmonary cavity not strongly vascularised. SALIVARY GLANDS (Figs 69 - 72). United, soft, not tumid, elongate, bilobed to Y-shaped; each duct leaving at the apex of the lobe and evenly thick throughout. BUCCAL MASS. Very small and elongate, radula correspondingly small, tightly enrolled and difficult to locate or prepare. RADULA (Figs 65 - 68). (known from three species) With a unicuspid central tooth and 9 - 15 laterals in each half-row, diminishing gradually in size laterally. Most or all laterals distinctively bicuspid or multicuspid, with outer cusps smaller or much smaller than inner cusps. Teeth are somewhat delicate (or flexible; Aiken 1981) and are short and flake-like at the ventral end of the radular ribbon. GENITALIA. (Figs 73 - 83) (known from six species) Hermaphroditic duct diverticulum (talon) short, large, sausage-shaped, not convoluted. Bursa copulatrix attending albumen gland. Acini of prostate indistinct to distinct. Vagina attenuate. Oviduct often containing a single large egg. Vas deferens either thickened prior to insertion on penis, or appearing as such but actually with a diverticulum lying parallel to it. Vas deferens entering penis subapically. Penial retractor muscle branching off columellar muscle, attaching partly to vas deferens, thus sometimes bifid or nearly so. Penis elongate, tubular. Penial sheath absent, but lower part sometimes surrounded by a thin sheath-like layer contiguous with walls of lower penis. Interior of penis with weak radial pilasters and small rhombic pads, sometimes with a longitudinal pilaster or short rounded lobe. Apical part of penis with a spatulate or broad “ scoop ”. One end with a microscopically serrated tip, the other end deeply embedded in muscular apex of penis. Scoop usually associated with one or two large, broad hooks, lying just behind or underneath it. Scoop and hook (s) could conceivably act together as a grip or pincer. Elsewhere in penis, a longitudinal row or group of few (<40) short, simple hooks mounted on rhombic pads. “ Spermatophore ” (see Discussion) detected in two species: comma-shaped, lying with reservoir in vagina with longitudinally ribbed tail extending into mid penis. End of tail probably originally weakly attached to wall of penis [as in one specimen of D. radius radius (Preston, 1910) comb. nov.] but subsequently detached. Partially digested tail fragments present in bursa of one specimen of D. pembensis sp. nov.	en	Rowson, Ben, Tattersfield, Peter (2013): Revision of Dadagulella gen. nov., the “ Gulella radius group ” (Gastropoda: Streptaxidae) of the eastern Afrotropics, including six new species and three new subspecies.

I 17592: 1 ad., “ Shimbi Hills, British East Africa ”, standing as “ radius ”, labelled “ ex Putzeys-Musée, 1935 ”, “ type ” and apparently the shell figured in Preston (1910: pl. VII, fig. 8). Verdcourt (1985) wrote that a second shell from Shimbi in the NHMUK type collection could not be located at that time. We too failed to trace this specimen. Van Bruggen (1969) referred to two other NHMUK shells from Gazi as “ paratypes ”, presumably because they were labelled as such. However, Gazi (4.42 ° S, 39.50 ° E) is around 30 km from the type locality of Shimbi (Shimba) Hills (4.25 oS, 39.38 oE), and Preston (1910) distinguished between the two localities elsewhere in his paper.

4511E41DD821FFCFFE7DFA86F34AF9FE.taxon	description	Description SHELL (Figs 1 - 5, 9 - 20, 43 - 50, 52 - 53). Very variable in size, shape and dentition, small to large (2.80 - 4.60 mm high x 1.60 - 2.44 mm wide), of 6.0 - 7.0 whorls. Ovate-acuminate, spire narrowly to broadly acuminate (spire angle 55 - 70 °). Apex pointed. Embryonic whorls smoothly granulate. Later whorls with relatively coarse and few ribs (7 - 16 per mm on penultimate whorl). Sutures relatively deep. Umbilicus closed or narrowly open. Peristome complete or (more often) incomplete parietally. Outer palatal surface of aperture with a depression corresponding to the palatal tooth and sometimes another one corresponding to the basal tooth. Dentition 5 - fold to 7 - fold, consisting of at least: one lamella-like parietal tooth; one slab-like palatal tooth, often bifid; one basal denticle; one shallow columellar denticle (very weak in some cases) and one deep-set columellar baffle, always visible. Parieto-palatal sinus, if present, broad, seldom narrow or parallel-sided. Neither the columellar baffle nor basal denticle were mentioned in Preston’s (1910) original description, although both are clearly visible on the lectotype which is apparently the originally figured specimen. We assume this to have been a lapsus. One or two additional columellar denticles may be present (e. g. Figs 12, 14, 15). Juvenile shells (Figs 43 - 45) with 3 - fold dentition: one parietal lamella; one bifid basal tooth; and one columellar tooth or thickening. Some earlier teeth are retained in some juveniles and even adults (e. g. some specimens from Jozani). CEPHALOPODIUM. Pale cream or yellow, with apricot to orange tentacle retractors and often with brown speckles on the mantle. SALIVARY GLANDS (Fig. 69). United, soft, not tumid, elongate, bilobed to nearly Y-shaped; each duct leaving at the whitened apex of the lobe and evenly thick throughout. RADULA (Fig. 65). With a unicuspid central tooth and around 13 laterals in each half-row, diminishing gradually in size laterally. All laterals bicuspid or tricuspid, with outer cusps much smaller than inner cusps. GENITALIA (Figs 73, 77, 83). Vas deferens appearing thickened prior to insertion on penis but actually with a short, broad parallel diverticulum. Penial sheath absent but with a thin sheath-like layer contiguous with walls of lower penis. Interior of penis with weak radial pilasters and small rhombic pads, sometimes with a longitudinal pilaster or short, rounded and weakly chitinized lobe. Apical, muscular part of penis with a single large hook, associated with a “ scoop ” with microscopically serrated tip. Elsewhere in penis, a single longitudinal row of short, simple hooks mounted on rhombic pads. “ Spermatophore ” (see Discussion) present in penis and vagina of one Amboni specimen; “ spermatophore ” tail, apparently attached to penis wall, present in penis of one Pugu specimen.	en	Rowson, Ben, Tattersfield, Peter (2013): Revision of Dadagulella gen. nov., the “ Gulella radius group ” (Gastropoda: Streptaxidae) of the eastern Afrotropics, including six new species and three new subspecies.

4511E41DD821FFCFFE7DFA86F34AF9FE.taxon	biology_ecology	Range and habitat Eastern Kenya and eastern Tanzania, including Unguja (Zanzibar) island. Apparently replaced by other Dadagulella gen. nov. species on Pemba island and in some lowland areas and montane forests, and by D. browni comb. nov. s. l. in Tanzania from around 7.8 ° S southwards. Dadagulella r. radius comb. nov. is sympatric with other Dadagulella gen. nov. species at Kwamgumi, Pugu and Kimboza [it has also been recorded from Kimboza by Verdcourt (2006: 48)]. The records are mainly from forest and other wellvegetated habitats; Verdcourt (2000) suggested the habitat was “ woodland / forest ”. Lange & Mwinzi (2003) found D. radius comb. nov. across several forest types at Arabuko-Sokoke, but Ndalila (2011) found only three specimens in the Shimba Hills, all in scrub and grassland rather than forest.	en	Rowson, Ben, Tattersfield, Peter (2013): Revision of Dadagulella gen. nov., the “ Gulella radius group ” (Gastropoda: Streptaxidae) of the eastern Afrotropics, including six new species and three new subspecies.

4511E41DD821FFCFFE7DFA86F34AF9FE.taxon	discussion	Remarks This appears to be the most widespread and variable species of Dadagulella gen. nov. In this we concur with van Bruggen (1969) and Verdcourt (1985) that D. radius comb. nov. is a species variable enough to include shells as different as the lectotype (Figs 1 - 5, 11) and those from Diani Beach (Fig. 14). We retain one such extreme form, subsequently described by Connolly (1922) as Gulella calva Connolly, 1922, as a subspecies of D. radius comb. nov. (see below) but we refrain from describing additional subspecies since these forms are not obviously geographically isolated (e. g. at Amboni, Fig. 15) and occur throughout the geographical range of the species. The variation between them often appears continuous rather than discrete (e. g. compare Figs 17 - 20, each from a similar latitude and arranged in order from W to E). Furthermore, some variability is often present at a single locality, e. g. at Gazi (compare Figs 12 and 13). Despite this, D. radius comb. nov. s. l. differs from other similar, lowland species as follows. It differs from D. browni comb. nov. s. l. in never having either an additional parietal denticle or two basal denticles, and in normally having a broader (or no) parieto-palatal sinus. It differs from D. delgada (Muratov, 2010) comb. nov. in lacking the flaring, lamella-like ribs and nearly always having a more broadly acuminate spire. It differs from D. ecclesiola sp. nov. in not having the basal denticle hidden behind the palatal tooth, in having at least one shallow columellar tooth, and in having a broader (or no) parieto-palatal sinus. The distinction between D. radius comb. nov. s. l. and D. minuscula comb. nov. of the Comoros, with which it was compared by Preston (1910), is discussed under the latter species.	en	Rowson, Ben, Tattersfield, Peter (2013): Revision of Dadagulella gen. nov., the “ Gulella radius group ” (Gastropoda: Streptaxidae) of the eastern Afrotropics, including six new species and three new subspecies.

4511E41DD82CFFCDFE08F9C2F151F95E.taxon	biology_ecology	Range and habitat Lowlands of extreme southeastern Kenya, including Taru Desert. This subspecies has also been recorded from Malindi (Verdcourt 1962: 17) and Mrima Hill (4.48 ° S, 39.25 ° E) (Verdcourt 2006). Verdcourt (2000) suggested the habitat was “ bushland to forest ”, in contrast to “ woodland / forest ” for D. r. radius comb. nov. Shells of both D. r. radius comb. nov. and D. r. calva comb. et stat. nov. have been found in river debris near Mombasa, but may have been washed in from different localities.	en	Rowson, Ben, Tattersfield, Peter (2013): Revision of Dadagulella gen. nov., the “ Gulella radius group ” (Gastropoda: Streptaxidae) of the eastern Afrotropics, including six new species and three new subspecies.

4511E41DD82CFFCDFE08F9C2F151F95E.taxon	discussion	Remarks The lectotype and similar material of this subspecies (Figs 6 - 8, 51) differ from D. r. radius comb. nov. in the more widely spaced ribs, more columnar shape and simpler dentition, although some specimens seem to show intermediate characters. Verdcourt evidently had difficulty separating them. Although Verdcourt (1962: 17) suggested G. calva was “ scarcely more than a variety of G. radius ”, it keyed out in a separate part of his key, with radius appearing in two other places (1962: 13, 22). The second of these (p. 22) was listed as “ Gulella radius (Preston) var. (K [Kenya], Mrima Hill Forest) ”. Verdcourt’s measurements, description, and range of apertural tooth formulas allow attribution of this taxon to D. r. calva comb. et stat. nov .. In his later checklists, Verdcourt (1983: 234; 2006: 48 - 49) maintained the two as separate species, and gave Mrima Hill as a locality for calva but not radius. He also kept them apart in his list of coastal molluscs (2000). Thus it appears likely that he later decided that (1962: 22) “ radius var. ” belonged to what we treat as D. r. calva comb. et stat. nov. and not to what we treat as D. r. radius comb. nov. It also appears that he decided not to separate the two taxa. We too found this a difficult decision to take, owing to the morphological, habitat and distributional differences, which may of course be interrelated. To acknowledge this difficulty, and the potential difficulties in assigning future material to either, we rank calva as a subspecies of radius.	en	Rowson, Ben, Tattersfield, Peter (2013): Revision of Dadagulella gen. nov., the “ Gulella radius group ” (Gastropoda: Streptaxidae) of the eastern Afrotropics, including six new species and three new subspecies.

4511E41DD82EFFCBFE16F960F0C8FB62.taxon	description	Description SHELL (Figs 23 - 26, 47 - 48). Small (2.60 - 3.20 mm high x 1.60 - 1.90 mm wide), of 5.5 - 6.0 whorls. Ovateacuminate, spire broadly acuminate (spire angle 66 - 76 °). Apex pointed. Embryonic whorls smoothly granulate. Later whorls with relatively coarse ribs (11 - 15 per mm on penultimate whorl). Sutures relatively shallow. Umbilicus closed or narrowly open. Peristome incomplete parietally. Outer palatal surface of aperture with a depression corresponding to the palatal tooth and another much weaker one corresponding to the basal tooth. Dentition 7 - fold to 8 - fold, consisting of: one lamella-like parietal tooth and (almost always) one additional parietal denticle; one slab-like palatal tooth, forming a narrow parieto-palatal sinus; two basal denticles; a deep-set columellar baffle, sometimes folded, and one or two shallower columellar denticles. Dentition of 8 - fold individuals alternatively recognisable as 7 - fold, depending on the interpretation of the columellar and parietal denticles (van Bruggen 1969). Juvenile shells of D. browni comb. nov. were not known to van Bruggen (1969, 2000). Herbert & Kilburn (2004) describe them simply as dentate, but with dentition different from that of the adult. Juveniles from southern Tanzania (Figs 47 - 48) have dentition similar to, but weaker than, juveniles of D. r. radius comb. nov. (Figs 43 - 45). CEPHALOPODIUM. Pale cream, with pink-orange tentacle retractors and a few purple-brown speckles in the mantle. SALIVARY GLANDS (Fig. 71). United, soft, not tumid, elongate, bilobed; each duct leaving at the whitened apex of the lobe and evenly thick throughout. RADULA. Described and figured by Aiken (1981) as having a unicuspid, ‘ heart-shaped’ central tooth and nine laterals in each half-row, of which at least the inner six are tricuspid, diminishing gradually in size laterally. The outer cusps of most teeth are smaller than the inner cusp. According to Aiken (1981) the teeth are flexible when pressed by a cover slip and there are 47 rows. GENITALIA (Figs 74, 82). Upper parts of spermoviduct not recovered. Vas deferens appearing thickened prior to insertion on penis but actually with a very short, broad parallel diverticulum. Penial sheath absent. Interior of penis with weak radial pilasters. Apical, muscular part of penis with a single large hook, associated with a spatulate “ scoop ” with microscopically serrated tip. Elsewhere in penis, a single longitudinal row of short, simple hooks.	en	Rowson, Ben, Tattersfield, Peter (2013): Revision of Dadagulella gen. nov., the “ Gulella radius group ” (Gastropoda: Streptaxidae) of the eastern Afrotropics, including six new species and three new subspecies.

4511E41DD82EFFCBFE16F960F0C8FB62.taxon	discussion	Remarks We agree with van Bruggen (1969) that the complex dentition of D. browni comb. nov. s. l. separates it from D. radius comb. nov. s. l., which never seems to have 8 - fold dentition, in particular the extra parietal and basal denticles. The shells of D. browni comb. nov. s. l. are also much smaller, less elongate (i. e. have a lower height / width ratio), and have a much narrower and more horizontal parieto-palatal sinus than is usual for D. radius comb. nov. s. l. Although some specimens of D. r. radius comb. nov. approach D. browni comb. nov. s. l. in one or more of these respects (e. g. Figs 10, 14, 17) all can be readily assigned to one or the other and the type specimens are morphologically quite different (Figs 1 - 5, 11, 52 vs. Fig. 26). Material intermediate between D. browni comb. nov. and D. radius comb. nov. might be expected in the intervening area of southern Tanzania or northern Mozambique. However, all the relevant southern Tanzanian material here (e. g. from Mafia and Mahenge) is closer to D. browni comb. nov. s. l. in dentition and other aspects. A recent survey in northern Mozambique (Muratov 2010) encountered only D. delgada comb. nov.	en	Rowson, Ben, Tattersfield, Peter (2013): Revision of Dadagulella gen. nov., the “ Gulella radius group ” (Gastropoda: Streptaxidae) of the eastern Afrotropics, including six new species and three new subspecies.

4511E41DD828FFCAFD84FB2CF1CEFD01.taxon	discussion	Remarks This taxon is in some respects intermediate between the type specimens of D. r. radius comb. nov. and D. b. browni comb. nov., and thus distinct from either, yet difficult to place. It is larger and not as squat as other D. browni comb. nov. s. l., and lacks the additional basal denticle and shallower columellar dentition. Conversely, it has a parietal denticle not seen in D. radius comb. nov. s. l, is smaller and squatter than most D. radius comb. nov. s. l., and has a longer and narrower parieto-palatal sinus than any D. radius comb. nov. s. l. Mafia Island, from which no other Dadagulella gen. nov. are yet known, lies at almost the same latitude (7.8 ° S) as the apparent northernmost limit of D. b. browni comb. nov. in mainland Tanzania. Given the morphology of this specimen, its latitude and its isolation as an island population, we treat it as a subspecies of D. browni comb. nov.	en	Rowson, Ben, Tattersfield, Peter (2013): Revision of Dadagulella gen. nov., the “ Gulella radius group ” (Gastropoda: Streptaxidae) of the eastern Afrotropics, including six new species and three new subspecies.

4511E41DD829FFC9FDAEFC8DF3A5FD8C.taxon	discussion	Remarks This subspecies is very similar to D. b. browni comb. nov. and, if found together, the two might not at first glance be distinguished. However, D. b. semulikiensis subsp. nov. is approximately 10 % taller and wider, has shallower sutures and a more complete peristome. Its parieto-palatal sinus is longer and narrower than that of D. b. browni comb. nov., and does not widen appreciably towards its inner end. The type localities of D. b. browni comb. nov. and D. b. semulikiensis subsp. nov. are over 3000 km apart, in very different biogeographic and climatic regions. Although several snail species are known to range between South and East Africa, most are either species of the coastal strip, or are widely distributed throughout the entire area. Dadagulella gen. nov. has not been recorded from much of the intervening area of East Africa and is represented in the Albertine Rift otherwise only by D. selene (van Bruggen & Van Goethem, 1999) comb. nov. It remains possible that the Semuliki population has descended from D. b. browni comb. nov., introduced by man from Tanzania or further to the south, and that the morphological differences are mainly ecophenotypic. However, in the light of these differences and the great geographic separation, we treat it as a subspecies of D. browni comb. nov. as we do with D. b. mafiensis subsp. nov.	en	Rowson, Ben, Tattersfield, Peter (2013): Revision of Dadagulella gen. nov., the “ Gulella radius group ” (Gastropoda: Streptaxidae) of the eastern Afrotropics, including six new species and three new subspecies.

Ovate-acuminate, spire narrowly accuminate (spire angle 53 - 65 °). Apex pointed. Embryonic whorls smoothly granulate. Later whorls with relatively coarse, often sinuous ribs (8 - 14 per mm on penultimate whorl). Sutures deep. Umbilicus closed. Peristome complete. Outer palatal surface of aperture with a depression, often furrow-like, corresponding to the palatal tooth. Dentition 4 - fold, consisting of: one strongly oblique parietal tooth, V-shaped when shell turned to the left; one large slablike palatal tooth, forming a narrow, horizontal parieto-palatal sinus; and a deep-set columellar baffle. A basal denticle is also present, presumably in all specimens, but is partly or completely hidden by the palatal tooth which occludes much of the aperture. The denticle is visible when the shell is turned to the right (Fig. 56). Juvenile shells not known with certainty: an individual from Kimboza (Fig. 49), with dentition like that of a juvenile D. r. radius comb. nov., might belong to this species. Anatomy unknown.	en	Rowson, Ben, Tattersfield, Peter (2013): Revision of Dadagulella gen. nov., the “ Gulella radius group ” (Gastropoda: Streptaxidae) of the eastern Afrotropics, including six new species and three new subspecies.

4511E41DD82BFFC8FDC4FE8BF085F80C.taxon	discussion	Remarks This species has much simpler dentition than D. minareta sp. nov. (which also occurs at Kimboza), and is usually smaller, with straight rather than sinuous ribs. Its dentition is more like that of D. r. radius comb. nov. (which again also occurs at Kimboza; Fig. 16) and D. minuscula minuscula (Morelet, 1877) comb. nov. but D. ecclesiola sp. nov. lacks the shallow columellar tooth, has a hidden or partly hidden basal denticle, and has a much narrower parieto-palatal sinus. It further differs from D. minuscula minuscula comb. nov. in having stronger ribs.	en	Rowson, Ben, Tattersfield, Peter (2013): Revision of Dadagulella gen. nov., the “ Gulella radius group ” (Gastropoda: Streptaxidae) of the eastern Afrotropics, including six new species and three new subspecies.

4511E41DD837FFD2FDF8FA7AF196FD75.taxon	discussion	Remarks This species was discussed by Rowson et al. (2010 b), who suggested a thorough revision of the group to establish whether the Pemba populations were part of a variable D. radius comb. nov. or a subspecies or species endemic to Pemba. This uncertainty was incorporated into their conclusions on endemism on the island (Rowson et al. 2010 b: 28 - 29, 32). We find here that there is little or no overlap with D. radius comb. nov. s. l. or other species, so conclude that this is an island endemic, which we here name D. pembensis sp. nov. Like specimens of D. r. radius comb. nov. on the opposite mainland at Amboni (e. g. Figs 15, 53), D. pembensis sp. nov. is large and has a complex pattern of 6 - fold dentition. However it is distinguishable from them by its even larger size, shallower sutures, and having on average an extra 0.5 whorls.

4511E41DD831FFD1FE1EFD39F6B1FD9E.taxon	description	Description SHELL (Fig. 33). Medium-sized (3.60 - 3.90 mm high x 2.00 - 2.20 mm wide), of 5.5 whorls. Ovateacuminate, although spire (spire angle 64 - 69 °) less acuminate than in other Dadagulella gen. nov. Apex rounded. Embryonic whorls smoothly granulate. Later whorls with relatively coarse ribs (13 - 15 per mm on penultimate whorl). Sutures of intermediate depth. Umbilicus closed or nearly so. Peristome complete. Outer palatal surface of aperture with a long, furrow-like depression corresponding to the palatal tooth. Dentition 5 - fold or 6 - fold, consisting of: one V-shaped parietal tooth; one slab-like palatal tooth, forming a conspicuous and narrow parieto-palatal sinus; and two to three shallow columellar teeth, the lower the largest. A deep set-columellar baffle is partly or completely hidden by the constricted aperture, while a basal denticle is completely hidden behind the palatal tooth. However, the baffle and basal denticle are probably present in all specimens. One broken juvenile shell is known; it appears to lack teeth. CEPHALOPODIUM. Pale cream, with pale tentacle retractors. SALIVARY GLANDS. United, soft, not tumid, elongate, Y-shaped; each duct leaving at the apex of the lobe and evenly thick throughout. RADULA. Not successfully prepared. GENITALIA. Figured in Rowson & Lange (2007). Vas deferens thickened prior to insertion on penis but apparently without diverticulum. Penial sheath absent. Interior of penis with weak radial pilasters, a single longitudinal pilaster, and small rhombic pads. Apical, muscular part of penis with two large hooks, associated with a spatulate “ scoop ” with microscopically serrated tip.

4511E41DD831FFD1FE1EFD39F6B1FD9E.taxon	discussion	Remarks This species is included in Dadagulella gen. nov. on the basis of the apical penial scoop and hooks, and the Y-shaped salivary gland. Its shell features are consistent with inclusion in Dadagulella gen. nov. although the apex is more rounded than in other species. A slightly or strongly rounded apex occurs in D. selene comb. nov. and D. meredithae comb. nov. The parieto-palatal sinus, hidden basal denticle, and columellar dentition of D. nictitans comb. nov. allow it to be separated from other species.	en	Rowson, Ben, Tattersfield, Peter (2013): Revision of Dadagulella gen. nov., the “ Gulella radius group ” (Gastropoda: Streptaxidae) of the eastern Afrotropics, including six new species and three new subspecies.

These comments are still applicable among the larger number of species we attribute to Dadagulella gen. nov. However, like D. browni semulikiensis subsp. nov., D. selene comb. nov. is notable for occurring far to the northwest of other Dadagulella gen. nov species.

4511E41DD83EFFDCFE00FD63F6D1F80C.taxon	discussion	Remarks Morelet (1877) described this species from Anjouan (type locality implied by the paper’s title) under the name “ Pupa minuscula ” but figured it under the name “ Pupa fischeriana ” (pl. XII, fig. 5). In the paper he compared it to three species from “ Île Bourbon ” (Réunion), but none is very like it, suggesting Morelet was unaware of other Dadagulella gen. nov. species and probably meaning that D. m. minuscula comb. nov. was the first species of the group to be collected. Two of the Réunion species are streptaxids of the Mascarene genus Gonospira Swainson, 1840 while the third belongs to the Pupillidae Turton, 1831 (see Griffiths & Florens 2006). Although Kobelt (1905, 1910) classified D. m. minuscula comb. nov. (under fischeriana) in the subgenus Ennea (Uniplicaria) L. Pfeiffer, 1856, it is very unlike Pupa cerea Dunker, 1848, the type species of Uniplicaria. Preston (1910) made a more relevant comparison in his description of Ennea radius, noting that his species had coarser ribs, a columellar denticle, and a bifid palatal tooth that were absent in D. m. minuscula comb. nov. Given these remarks and the fact that Preston cited only Anjouan as a locality for D. m. minuscula comb. nov., it thus appears he examined only the lectotype of the latter or material that was very like it. We agree that these features distinguish the lectotype of D. m. minuscula comb. nov. from that of D. r. radius comb. nov. However, the paralectotype (if it is such; see also below) of D. m. minuscula comb. nov., while having similarly fine ribs, has a stronger shallow columellar denticle that resembles that of D. r. radius comb. nov. Although we have seen no mainland specimen that exactly matches either of them, both specimens of D. m. minuscula comb. nov. fall within the range of variation seen in D. r. radius comb. nov. in other respects. It is therefore possible that the two taxa are synonymous, in which case Morelet’s name would take priority over Preston’s. It is even possible that D. minuscula comb. nov. s. l. consists of populations of D. radius comb. nov. s. l. derived from specimens introduced from the African mainland (the alternative, that D. radius comb. nov. s. l. was introduced into East Africa from the Comoros appears unlikely given the variation seen in East African populations and the many similar species there). That said, the isolated, volcanic Comoros archipelago comprises a region of endemism in itself and D. minuscula comb. nov. s. l. could easily be a Comoros endemic whose overlapping variation with D. radius comb. nov. s. l. is due to homoplasy. Resolving the relationships between these two taxa, and D. m. mahorana subsp. nov. below, is likely to require anatomical or molecular data. Until such information becomes available, and while we focus on other issues within Dadagulella gen. nov., we maintain the two species as separate. Van Bruggen (1986) took a similar approach with two other streptaxids, one described by Preston from the Shimba Hills, the other by Morelet from Mayotte. There is a nomenclatural issue concerning the name minuscula Morelet, 1877. Morelet (1881) tried to replace the name used for the (1877) description, Pupa minuscula, with the name used for the (1877) figure, Ennea fischeriana. Morelet (1881) wrote that the name P. minuscula had been published in error. Subsequently both Tryon (1885: 100) and Kobelt (1905: 166; 1910: 158) accepted fischeriana as the species name. However, when revising the fauna of the Comoros, Fischer-Piette & Vukadinovic (1974) disagreed. They treated E. fischeriana is an objective synonym of P. minuscula since the latter was not preoccupied and was validly introduced. This point of view was followed by Richardson (1988). As a consequence, the lectotype of D. m. minuscula comb. nov. in NHMUK also becomes the lectotype of E. fischeriana and the latter name remains unavailable for a taxon founded on another specimen. This includes the paralectotype, which is further discussed below. Finally, we note that, although Emberton & Pearce (2000) described a junior homonym of minuscula Morelet, 1877 in Gulella (G. minuscula Emberton & Pearce, 2000) no replacement name is required since minuscula Morelet is here transferred from Gulella to Dadagulella gen. nov.	en	Rowson, Ben, Tattersfield, Peter (2013): Revision of Dadagulella gen. nov., the “ Gulella radius group ” (Gastropoda: Streptaxidae) of the eastern Afrotropics, including six new species and three new subspecies.

4511E41DD838FFDAFDA1FE8BF394FBA8.taxon	discussion	Remarks This Mayotte subspecies is here separated from its counterpart on Nzwani for the first time. Specimens of Dadagulella gen. nov. species from Mayotte were first discussed by Morelet (1881) under his proposed replacement name for Pupa minuscula (see above). He noted specimens from Mayotte were larger and had more complex dentition than those from Anjouan. Tryon (1885) and Kobelt (1905) followed Morelet in treating D. fischeriana (i. e. D. minuscula comb. nov. s. l.) as a variable species that was present on the “ Comoros Islands ” (Tryon 1885) or on Anjouan, with a “ grössere Form auf Mayotte ” (Kobelt 1905, although his dimensions of 9 mm x 2 mm must be erroneous). Both authors appear to have copied Morelet’s (1877) figure of the lectotype of D. m. minuscula comb. nov., unless they saw material very like it, and appear to have repeated (translated) Morelet’s (1881) comments on dentition. Tryon (1885) says “ sometimes the parietal lamina is accompanied by a more profound very small tooth ” but this may be a misinterpretation of Morelet’s (1881) “ le pli pariétal peut être accompagné d’une très petite denticule plus profonde ”, with “ plus profonde ” meaning ‘ deeper’, rather than ‘ profound’, i. e. ‘ more obvious’ or ‘ more important’. Morelet’s “ denticule ” is likely to refer to the bifid shape of the parietal tooth, rather than to an additional parietal denticle (like that of D. browni comb. nov. s. l.) which is not present in any of the specimens of D. minuscula comb. nov. s. l. we examined. It is not clear to which of the other teeth Morelet’s (1881) “ cinquième petite dent, dans la gorge de la coquille ” refers, because all Mayotte specimens we examined have 6 - fold dentition. It could even be the fifth tooth, i. e. the shallow columellar denticle, of the paralectotype of D. m. minuscula comb. nov., since Morelet (1881) is not explicit about the shell he is referring to. This raises another unfortunate possibility: that the paralectotype of D. m. minuscula comb. nov., apparently from Anjouan, was in fact a specimen without type status that was added later, and may even have come from Mayotte (or elsewhere), which would accord with Morelet’s (1881) amendments to his description. However, we have no other reason to doubt the existing labels. We here introduce the name D. m. mahorana subsp. nov. for the larger, coeloconoid specimens from Mayotte, the name fischeriana Morelet being unavailable (see above). They are indeed larger than the two specimens of D. m. minuscula comb. nov. (the size ranges do not overlap), are more elongate, have a more coeloconoid spire, finer and more numerous ribs, and 6 - fold dentition including two shallow columellar denticles. These same features also distinguish them from D. radius comb. nov. s. l., which they overlap in size but only barely in the higher number of ribs per millimetre. Although as with D. radius comb. nov. s. l., it is difficult to distinguish intra- and interspecific variability, it is clear that the differences between the holotype of D. m. mahorana subsp. nov. and the lectotype of D. m. minuscula comb. nov., each collected on different islands, are substantial and sufficient for most modern authors to consider them distinct species. Alternatively, and given the residual uncertainty about the paralectotype of D. m. minuscula comb. nov., they may form part of a complex of subspecies. Again, further data is needed to address this.	en	Rowson, Ben, Tattersfield, Peter (2013): Revision of Dadagulella gen. nov., the “ Gulella radius group ” (Gastropoda: Streptaxidae) of the eastern Afrotropics, including six new species and three new subspecies.

4511E41DD839FFD8FE7EFBF6F6ECFCF7.taxon	discussion	Remarks This species differs from D. conoidea comb. nov. in its weaker dentition, smaller size, and in having punctate apical whorls. Along with D. conoidea comb. nov. and D. delta sp. nov. it has weaker dentition than other Dadagulella gen. nov. However, both D. rondoensis comb. nov. and D. conoidea comb. nov. are distinctively more conical, i. e. less ovate than other Dadagulella gen. nov. These two are attributed to the genus somewhat speculatively, on the basis of their acuminate spire and pointed apex. These features mean they do not obviously fit into Gulella or any of its named subgenera, or indeed other plausible streptaxid genera. No anatomical or juvenile shell data are available for either species, both being known from single specimens. The punctuate apex of D. rondoensis comb. nov., unique in Dadagulella gen. nov., may not be significant in this respect (see Rowson 2007 b for a discussion on the value of apical sculpture in distinguishing African streptaxid genera). The apex of D. conoidea comb. nov. is less obviously punctuate, although it may have been worn smooth (Verdcourt 1996). In the description of D. rondoensis comb. nov., Verdcourt (1994) discussed a resemblance only to Gulella galactochila (Crosse, 1885), a much larger and more broadly acuminate Tanzanian species that we consider to lack the characteristic features of Dadagulella gen. nov. Although G. galactochila has not been dissected, the anatomy of another species very similar to it (G. udzungwensis van Bruggen, 2003) lacks the anatomical features of Dadagulella gen. nov. (Rowson unpublished). In his discussion of D. conoidea comb. nov., Verdcourt (1996) made no reference to either D. rondoensis comb. nov. or G. galactochila, but only to two species that we here treat in Dadagulella gen. nov. (D. r. radius comb. nov. and D. cuspidata comb. nov.). We contend firstly that D. rondoensis comb. nov. and D. conoidea comb. nov. are more similar to one another than either is to G. galactochila, and secondly that the resemblance between D. conoidea comb. nov., D. r. radius comb. nov. and D. cuspidata comb. nov. extends also to D. rondoensis comb. nov .. Our attribution of them to Dadagulella gen. nov. reflects this point of view.	en	Rowson, Ben, Tattersfield, Peter (2013): Revision of Dadagulella gen. nov., the “ Gulella radius group ” (Gastropoda: Streptaxidae) of the eastern Afrotropics, including six new species and three new subspecies.
