Familia: Melanopsidae
Genus: Melanopsis
Name
Melanopsis doriae Issel, 1865 – Wikispecies link – Pensoft Profile
Records from Iran
Kerman Province (Issel 1863[1], Martens 1874[2], Biggs 1936[3], 1937[4], Starmühlner and Edlauer 1957[5], 1961[6], 1965[7]); Fars Province (Starmühlner and Edlauer 1957[5]); Yazd Province (Starmühlner and Edlauer 1957[5]); Khuzestan Province (Mansoorian 1994[8], 2001[9]); Mazandaran Province (Starmühlner and Edlauer 1957[5], Mansoorian 2000[10]); Gilan Province (Starmühlner and Edlauer 1957[5]); Bushehr Province (Starmühlner and Edlauer 1957[5]).
New records
Hormozgan Province: IR17-11 [2 ex.]; IR19-11 [1 ex.].
Material examined
NHMW “Melanopsis doriae Issel” Persien, Kerman, aus teilweise eingestürztem Kanal, leg. Starmühlner 1949/50.
Associated species
Melanoides tuberculatus, Thiara scabra, Farsithyra farsensis.
Remarks
Starmühlner and Edlauer (1957)[5] studied the anatomy of Melanopsis doriae and Melanopsis kotschyi showing differences in the nervous system. Furthermore they found differences in some features of the opercula between these species, and showed a strong morphological plasticity of the shells (see: Starmühlner and Edlauer 1957[5], plate 1: Figs g’, g’’, g’’’ and h’, h’’). Re-examintion of Melanopsis doriae from Edlauer’s collection in NHMW shows that the shell (Fig. 4) is slimmer than the shell of Melanopsis sp.
Distribution
