Taxonomy: For all marine species, Project Gastropods uses the taxonomy in the online database WoRMS. When starting a new article, do not use sources of taxonomic information that predate the 2017 revision for all gastropod groups ("Revised Classification, Nomenclator and Typification of Gastropod and Monoplacophoran Families" by Philippe Bouchet & Jean-Pierre Rocroi, Bernhard Hausdorf, Andrzej Kaim, Yasunori Kano, Alexander Nützel, Pavel Parkhaev, Michael Schrödl and Ellen E. Strong in Malacologia, 2017, 61(1–2): 1–526.) (can be dowloaded at Researchgate.net), substituting the previous classification of 2005 Taxonomy of the Gastropoda (Bouchet & Rocroi, 2005). If you need help with any aspect of an article, please leave a note at the Project talk page.
The only image of this mollusk is copyright non-commercial

I tried to add an image of this species but the only image I could locate was from the original 1990 identification in a scholarly paper (and databases which pull from it), all of which claim non-commercial attribution licenses. The wiki-commons style guide states that this is not an acceptable license to pull an image from. How do we handle having exactly one photo available on the internet for a species? Is it even still considered a distinguished species? Snoaps (talk) 15:52, 1 August 2025 (UTC)Reply
