The type species ' Cyclostoma pollex Gould, 1856 [October]' is currently recognized as a junior subjective synonym of Megalomastoma gravidum Benson, 1856 [March].</p> <p>Note.</p> <p>When describing his new species as Cyclostoma pollex, Gould (1856) simultaneously proposed the new generic name Pollicaria for this new nominal species. Gould also doubtfully included Cyclostoma myersii Haines, 1855 and Cyclostoma chrysalis Pfeiffer, 1852 in the Pollicaria Gould, 1856. Benson (1859) published a new generic name Hybocystis containing a single species from Burma Megalomastoma gravidum Benson, 1856. Although Benson (1860) noted that Hybocystis was a junior subjective synonym of Pollicaria Gould, 1856, the name Pollicaria was widely overlooked prior to Kobelt’s (1902) review of cyclophoroideans and both Wenz (1938) and Pain (1974) continued to mistakenly cite Megalomastoma gravidum Benson, 1856 as the type species. With only the doubtful inclusion of Cyclostoma myersii Haines, 1855 and Cyclostoma chrysalis Pfeiffer, 1852 in the original description of Pollicaria, the type species of Pollicaria was unequivocally fixed in the original publication by monotypy.</p> <p>Diagnosis.</p> <p>Shell pupoid, small to large (shell height 35-50 mm), thickened and solid.

Shell small for Pollicaria, pupoid, pale orange, yellow to white. Periostracum thin and transparent; shell surface smooth. Whorls 5-6; sutures moderately impressed; apex slightly inclined to right; spire short. Last whorl large about two-thirds of shell height, distorted and flattened in front. Aperture rounded with a shallow posterior angled groove. Peristome continuous, with distinct parietal declining shoulder internally.

Records from Northern Vietnam of Pollicaria crossei and Pollicaria rochebruni are considered to be distinct species.</p> <p>Remarks.</p> <p>Otopoma blennus Benson, 1856 and Cyclostoma pollex Gould, 1856 have long been considered as junior synonyms of Pollicaria gravida and this classification has been followed by a number of authors (Hanley and Theobald 1870, Sowerby 1878, Crosse 1885, Kobelt 1902, Pain 1974). Subsequently, Pollicaria crossei and Pollicaria rochebruni from Vietnam were also placed into synonymy with this species (see Pain 1974). However, examination of the type specimens of these three species (Figs 4A, B; 5D, F) dem onstrated that Pollicaria gravida could be distinguished from Pollicaria crossei and Pollicaria rochebruni by having a whitish to yellowish shell colour with swollen whorls, impressed sutures and with the last whorl flattened ventrally (Table 1). Furthermore, Pollicaria gravida is mainly restricted to the western edge of the Pollicaria distribution in Tavoy and Tenasserim of Burma, and does not overlap with the two Vietnamese species in the east (Pain 1974). Unfortunately, none of the live specimens of Pollicaria gravida were examined cytogenetically for additional discrimination of these three species.</p> </div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/B4044DA4ECDC265DF6B5960DB6F0ECD7	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Periostracum thin, corneous; shell surface usually with fine malleations on upper half of last whorl. Aperture almost circular with a shallow posterior angled groove. Peristome yellow, parietal declining shoulder absent.

Central tooth with well developed central cusp and one smaller lateral cusp on each side; central cusp large, elongate with pointed tip. Lateral teeth with 2 cusps, outer cusp largest and elongate shape with pointed tip, and with relatively small pointed tip of inner lateral cusps. Inner and outer marginal teeth with 2 cusps; central cusp large, flanked by small inner lateral cusps.</p> <p>Distribution:</p> <p>The type locality of this species was given as the broad location of “Siam” (see Haines 1855). Subsequently, Pollicaria mouhoti was synonymised with Pollicaria myersii (von Martens 1867, Pain 1974) thus expanding the distribution of Pollicaria myersii beyond its historical range. However, in this study the distribution of the species is restricted to limestone areas of Vientiane to Luang Prabang, Laos, and probably the northern part of Thailand.</p> <p>Remarks:</p> <p>The syntype AMNH 43629 could not be traced (Siddal and Watson, personal communication). Due to the proximity of the geographic distributions and similarity in shell morphology of the two species, Pollicaria mouhoti have long been considered a junior synonym of Pollicaria myersii (see Pain 1974). However, Pollicaria myersii can be distinguished from Pollicaria mouhoti by an elongated purple to pale orange shell with thin periostracum, rounded aperture and very fine wrinkles on the dorsal part of the last whorl (Table 1, Fig. 4F, K). Pollicaria myersii differs from Pollicaria gravida, Pollicaria rochebruni and Pollicaria crossei by having a larger shell, no apertural groove and noticeable wrinkles on last whorl (Tables 1, 2).</p> </div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/8AEB8549F4AE4560FFF26AD811F200B1	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

However, examination of the type specimens of Pollicaria mouhoti (Fig. 4H) showed that it was clearly distinct from Pollicaria myersii in shell shape, sculpture and colour pattern. The major distinguishing shell characters of Pollicaria mouhoti are the smaller shell size, purplish shell colour, bright orange spire, expanded bright orange to red apertural lip and bold wrinkles on the dorsal side of last whorl (Tables 1, 2). In addition, the chromosome analysis shows a clear difference in karyotype patterns between these two species (Kongim et al. 2009, 2010). Hence, Pollicaria mouhoti is removed from the synonymy of Pollicaria myersii and reinstated as a distinct species.</p> </div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/A6D326A41300B9B942CE153C2BC83F1A	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Periostracum thin and transparent. Whorls 5-6; sutures moderately impressed; apex obtuse; spire short. Last whorl large about two-thirds of shell height, flattened in front. Shell surface rough with malleations on upper half of last whorl. Aperture almost circular, shallow posterior angled groove present; peristome continuous, yellow to pale orange. Lip thickened, broadly expanded; umbilicus narrow. Operculum thick, calcareous, concentric, exterior little concave.</p> <p>Radula: Taenioglossate radula, teeth arrangement with central, lateral and marginal teeth shape similar to the nominotypical subspecies.</p> <p>Distribution.</p> <p>Pollicaria mouhoti monochroma ssp. n. is restricted to the northern limit of the species’ distribution in Loei, Phetchabun, Chaiyaphum and Nongbua Lumphoo Provinces.</p> <p>Remark.</p> <p>Pollicaria mouhoti monochroma ssp. n. can be distinguished from the nominotypical subspecies by having a much smaller, entirely black to purple shell (Tables 1, 2) and a distinct karyotype pattern (see Kongim et al. 2009, 2010). The shell size and shape of this subspecies are similar to that of Pollicaria gravida and Pollicaria crossei, but the purple shell is a distinguishing characteristic.</p> <p>Shell character variations can be observed in the Phu Pha Lom, Loei Province population. These individuals exhibit a relatively larger shell than the typical populations (Table 2), however, the monochrome black shell and similar karyotype pattern indicate that they belong to this subspecies (Kongim et al. 2009).</p></div> 	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/20636E38914D5127A3D95FB9BE34B344	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Periostracum thin, corneous; shell surface with fine growth lines and last whorl with distinctly strong pitting dorsally. Whorls 6-7 whorls; sutures impressed; apex obtuse. Last whorl large about two-third of shell height, flattened in front. Aperture rounded, with shallow to deep posterior angle groove. Peristome continuous, little elevated, yellow to orange, internal parietal declining shoulder absent. Lip thickened, duplicated, and with distinct growth ridges; umbilicus narrow. Operculum thick, calcareous, concentric.</p> <p>Radula: Taenioglossate radula, teeth arrangement with central, lateral and marginal teeth shape similar to Pollicaria myersii. Minor differences are the well-developed central cusp with one to three small lateral cusps of the central tooth, and the slightly elongate and slender central cusp of the inner marginal teeth.</p> <p>Distribution.</p> <p>This species has a restricted distribution and is known only from limestone outcrops in Perak, Peninsular Malaysia (Morgan 1885a, b). Material collected for this study was from Kinta valley, Perak, and the southern part of the species’ historical range in Bukit Chintamani, Selangor, Peninsular Malaysia is considered to be this locally endemic species.</p> <p>Remarks.</p> <p>The locally endemic Pollicaria elephas is confined to a few limestone outcrops in Peninsular Malaysia and shows several unique shell characters that separate it from its congeners. The major distinguishing characters of this species are the very large, monochrome yellowish to pale orange shell with the last whorl distorted ventrally and sculptured with scattered, deep pits dorsally; and rounded and thickened aperture. (Table 2, Fig. 5A-C).</p> <p>Morgan (1885a, b) proposed two nominal species of Pollicaria from Perak, which differed mainly by the shell size (larger shell Hybocystis elephas and smaller shell Hybocystis jousseaumei). In the first revision of this genus, Crosse (1885) assumed that they were the same species and recognized only Pollicaria elephas. Thereafter Pollicaria jousseaumei was recognized as a synonym of Pollicaria elephas (Kobelt 1902, Pain 1974). Examination of the type specimens (Fig. 5A, B) confirmed Pollicaria jousseaumei as junior synonym of Pollicaria elephas. Moreover, the recent land snail survey in Perak, Peninsular Malaysia recorded both large and small shell forms of the species from the same localities.</p> </div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/0AA945F68CF743DE6273D5C962D2EB85	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Pollicaria rochebruni can be distinguished from the latter species by having a larger red-brown to purple-black shell with flattened whorls and shallow sutures, while Pollicaria gravida usually has smaller pale orange shell with convex whorls and impressed sutures (Tables 1, 2). Pollicaria rochebruni differs from the sympatric Pollicaria crossei in both shell size and colour (Tables 1, 2, Fig. 5F) as well as having a distinct karyotype pattern (see Kongim et al. 2010).</p> </div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/6B02F6AB9E68889B7073A28036030068	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
