Tylomelania History
Nearly a century of neglect, with little mentioning by Woltereck (1931, 1941) and Wesenberg-Lund (1939), the beautiful gastropods in two central lake systems, Lake Poso and the Lakes of Malili system, provide a great opportunity for studying the evolutionary and taxonomic of Tylomelania species.
These ancient lakes, Lake Poso and the Lake of Malili System, were discovered by the Swiss naturalist Paul and Fritz Sararin in 1896.
Tylomelania from Sulawesi shares a common reproductive anatomy and strategy which they are brooding its young in the uterus. 32 species of Tylomelania currently have been described from both ancient lake systems Sulawesi.
Lake Poso is located 80km NorthWest of the Malili Lake systems. It is a deep lake (-450m , 323.2km2). Also, It is a home of the most beautiful Tylomelania species of Sulawesi island.
