Abstract

The Australian land snail genus Bothriembryon Pilsbry, 1894, currently comprises 57 extant species, with all but five of these species found in Western Australia. We describe ten new species, B. isabellae n. sp., B. connori n. sp., B. christineae n. sp., B. limone n. sp., B. spiralis n. sp., B. harveyi n. sp., B. transitus n. sp, B. moondynejoei, B. wandoo n. sp., and B. brunneus n. sp. from the biodiversity hotspot of south-west Western Australia, based on molecular and morphological data. The dataset contains two Supplementary Tables from this paper. Supplementary Table 1 lists GenBank numbers of sequences used in this study. Supplementary Table 2 lists the raw shell measurements used in this study. There is no limitation on the reuse of this data, nor any legal or ethical considerations.
