Abstract

Gonyostomus clime is a new species collected from the Caboclos region of Sao Paulo, Brazil, extending the distribution of the genus south to the cavern environment of the central Atlantic rainforest. The new species differs from the other three species in the genus in having a different colour pattern of the shell, a wider umbilicus, smoother sculpture, and a wider aperture having a straight inner lip. The species can be already classified as endangered. (AU)
