Varga, A.: A new species of Zonitarion (Mollusca, Urocyclidae) from the People's Republic of Congo

its wall is thin. The free oviduct is long. The length ratio of penis with caecum, bursa copu­latrix, free oviduct is 1 : 1 : 1. The vas deferens is short. Sarcobelum is spindle-shaped, its papilla is bent and its apex becomes pressed in the base of the penis papilla (Fig. 10). Material: People' s Republic of Congo, Brazzaville, Kindamba, Heya, near cave 9. 11. 1963 leg. J. BALOGH and A. ZICSI. Only the holotype is known. Notes: Its anatomic structure can ba well distinguished from any other Zonitarion spe­cies. The penis does not prostrate itself on the sarcobelum, as it is the case at the Z. (B. ) camerunensis Van Mol, 1970, but draws off the sarcobelum a little, the caecum becomes free extruding itself out of the penis-seath. I dedicate the new species to Prof. Dr. János BALOGH, member of the Academy, who first collected it. REFERENCE VAN MOL, J.
