| The recent finding of a private shell collection from Peru, dating from the early 20th century, sheds some new light on the history of Neotropical malacology. The collection of J.J. Bravo is partly reconstructed and some data is given on his life and conchological activities. It shows that, in the early 20th century, connections did exist between amateur conchologists from Peru, the United Kingdom and the United States of America. El reciente hallazgo de los restos de una colección privada de moluscos en el Perú, echa algunas luces sobre la Malacología Neotropical. Debido a esto, ahora podemos reconstruir parcialmente, la colección de J.J. Bravo, y aportar datos sobre su vida y actividades malacológicas. Todo indica que a comienzos del siglo XX, ya... |

In this paper we present new records for well-known species and elucidate the status of several lesser known taxa. Four taxa are described as new: Bostryx chusgonensis sipas, B. fragilis, Scutalus (Scutalus) mariopenai and S. (S.) phaeocheilus altoensis. The following species are recorded as new to the Peruvian malacofauna: Corona pfeifferi, Drymaeus (D.) branneri, and Thaumastus flori. Strophocheilus tenuis Haas, 1955 is now considered synonymous with Thaumastus (Paeniscutalus) crenellus (Philippi, 1867). Plekocheilus conspicuus Pilsbry, 1932 is now placed in the synonymy of... |
