Austrobela, Spergo, Theta and Austrotheta (Gastropoda: Conoidea: Raphitomidae) from the deep sea of Australia

The samples studied herein were selected among all deep- sea Raphitomidae ethanol- preserved material from the malacological collections of the Australian Museum, Sydney (AMS), the South Australian Museum, Adelaide (SAMA), the Tasmanian Museum and Art Gallery, Hobart, Australia (TMAG), the Western Australian Museum, Perth (WAM) and the Muséum national d'Histoire na turelle, Paris (MNHN). Most of the studied material has been collected off Australia during the expeditions IN2015_C01, IN2015_C02 (in the Great Australian Bight, GAB), IN2017_V03 (Tasman and Coral Seas) and IN2018_V06 (Tasmanian seamounts), targeting several Commonwealth Marine Reserves (CMR) among other sites. Based on this material, a molecular phylogeny of the family has revealed a considerable amount of genus and species level lineages previously unknown to science. The data has been acquired on the following RV Investigator voyage(s) IN2015_C01 IN2015_C02 IN2017_C01 IN2017_V03 and IN2018_V06 with links to additional metadata, datasets, events, deployments, publications etc. If this data has been used in any products, please acknowledge with the following: We acknowledge the use of the CSIRO Marine National Facility (https://ror.org/01mae9353) in undertaking this research.
