Biology:Tauphaedusa
From HandWiki
Tauphaedusa is a genus of land snails belonging to the subfamily Phaedusinae of the family Clausiliidae.[1] The type species is Tauphaedusa tau (O. Boettger, 1877).[1]
The genus was first described in 2003 by the German malacologist, Hartmut Nordsieck,[1][2] who described it as a subgenus of Euphaedusa, stating that "this subgenus is identical with the tau group[3] from mainland China ...and includes all Euphaedusa species from Taiwan, South Korea and the Japanese Islands, except E. aculus".[2]
In a 2021 paper, Sulikowska-Drozd, Hwang, Páll-Gergely and Wu suggested elevating this subgenus to the rank of genus.[4]
