Biodiversity And Phylogenetic Studies Of Land Snails (Pulmonata: Stylommatophora) In Peninsular Malaysia
A total of 24 species from 21 genera in 14 families sampled from 19 locations in Peninsular Malaysia were identified by looking at their shell morphological characteristics and compared with voucher specimens in Natural History Museum, London. All the specimens were successfully sequenced based on t...
