“…Bole and Velkovrh (1986) mentioned only one subterranean species from South Asia that was recorded in Sri Lanka (Srilankiella horanae Bole & Velkovrh, 1986, nomen nudum according Kabat and Hershler 1993) and 12 probable pomatiopsid taxa from Japan belonging to the genera Akiyoshia Kuroda & Habe, 1954, Cochliopopsis Mori, 1938 and Moria Kuroda & Habe, 1958. Despite the recent increased interest in South and East Asian terrestrial micromolluscs (Maassen 2008, Culver 2012, Páll-Gergely 2014, Páll-Gergely et al 2015, Inkhavilay et al 2016, Páll-Gergely et al 2016, Páll-Gergely et al 2017, our knowledge of the stygobiont gastropod fauna of the region has not advanced significantly since 1986. Despite the extraordinary high radiation of surface freshwater Pomatiopsidae Bourguignat, 1863, species of the tribe Triculini Annandale, 1924 in the Mekong tributary (Deshayes and Jullien 1876;Crosse and Fischer 1879;Annandale 1919;Brandt 1968Brandt , 1970Brandt , 1974Davis 1979, Temcharoen 1971Brandt and Temcharoen 1974;Strong et al 2007), the troglobiont and stygobiont species of the area remained unknown.…”

In February 2017 we investigated several caves and karstic springs in Laos for the presence of underground freshwater gastropod species. We report previously unrecorded freshwater gastropod assemblages in the largest cave in Laos, Tham Khon Dôn, and in the third largest cave, Pha Soung, in Khammouane Province, with single finds in Na Li Cave (Khammouane Province), an unnamed cave near Vieng Thong (Bolikhamsay Province) and a small karst spring near Phonsavan (Xianghouan Province). All 15 species recorded and described herein are new to science. Four species are assigned to the new genus Pseudoiglica: P.pseudoiglicasp. n., P.olsavskyisp. n., P.kameniarisp. n., and P.phonsavanicasp. n. Three species are assigned to the new genus Thamkhondonia: T.mouretisp. n., T.vacquieisp. n., and T.smidaisp. n. Eight species are assigned to the genus Tricula Benson, 1843: T.valenasisp. n., T.davisisp. n., T.spelaeasp. n., T.lenahanisp. n., T.reischuetzorumsp. n., T.phasoungensissp. n., T.bannaensissp. n., and T.viengthongensissp. n.

The land area of Laos is composed of a large variety of undisturbed habitats, such as high mountainous areas, huge limestone karsts and the lower Mekong Basin. Therefore, Laos is expected to have a high species diversity, especially for the land snails. However, with respect to research on malacology, Laos is probably the least well-researched area for land snail diversity in Indochina (including Laos) over the past few centuries. The handful of species lists have never been systematically revised from the colonial period to the present, so these classifications are outdated. Herein we present the first comprehensive annotated checklist with an up-to-date systematic framework of the land snail fauna in Laos based on both field investigations and literature surveys. This annotated checklist is collectively composed of 231 nominal species (62 ‘prosobranch’ and 169 heterobranches), of which 221 nominal species are illustrated. The type specimens of 143 species from several museum collections and/or 144 species of newly collected specimens are illustrated. There are 58 species recorded as new to the malacofauna of the country, and two new replacement names are proposed as Hemiplectalanxangnica Inkhavilay and Panha, nomen novum (Ariophantidae) and Chloritiskhammouanensis Inkhavilay and Panha, nomen novum (Camaenidae). Four recently described species of the genus Amphidromus from Laos, “thakhekensis”, “richgoldbergi”, “attapeuensis” and “phuonglinhae” are synonymized with previously described species. In addition, thirteen nominal species are listed as uncertain records that may or may not occur in Laos. This annotated checklist may inspire malacologists to carry on systematic research in this region.

“…However, the exact locality could not be determined (Nordsieck 2002, Páll-Gergely 2014, Páll-Gergely 2015c). A geological report (Marutani 2006), mentioned the name “Ban Namthong” in brackets after “Pa Hia”.…”

Previously only a single plectopylid species, Helix laomontana L. Pfeiffer, 1862 was reported from Laos. Here we erect Naggsia Páll-Gergely & Muratov, gen. n. for Helix laomontana based on the description of its reproductive anatomy and radula. Another species, Hunyadiscus saurini Páll-Gergely, gen. & sp. n. is described from Northern Laos based on conchological data. Helix (Plectopylis) andersoni Blanford, 1869, which is known from the Burmese-Chinese border region, is also classified within Hunyadiscus Páll-Gergely, gen. n. A third species, Gudeodiscus (Gudeodiscus) messageri raheemi Páll-Gergely & Hunyadi, 2015 is reported from Laos for the first time. The new localities represent the westernmost sites of the genus Gudeodiscus. The reproductive anatomy of the latter species is described.
