Three new species of the recently described genus Kora are described, based on dry material collected in caverniculous and adjacent environments. Kora terrea, from Presidente Olegario, MG, is characterized by spotted pigmentation; projected, wide outer lip, and pointed spire. Kora nigra, from Carinhanha, BA, is characterized by dark-brown color, elliptical outline, and rounded, narrow aperture. Kora iracema, from Sao Desiderio, BA, is characterized by very ample, projected outer lip, wide spire and white coloration. A new occurrence of the type species, Kora corallina, is reported, from Carinhanha, BA, expanding its geographic distribution similar to 200km towards southwest. Species of the genus Kora have been shown to be restricted to semi-dry, caatinga environment, restricted to south region of Northeast Brazilian region, and north of Southeast region. (AU) | |
