Morfologia do sistema muscular e do sistema reprodutor de Anisancylus obliquus (Broderip & Sowerby) do Chile, como contribuição à sistemática de Ancylidae (Gastropoda, Pulmonata, Basommatophora)

A study on the morphology of the muscular and reproductive systems of Anisancylus obliquus (Broderip & Sowerby, 1832) based on specimens from Chile is presented. Differences are observed in the number of folicules of the ovotestis and prostata when comparing them with specimens from Brazil (chilean specimens: ovotestis = 28 to 32; prostata = 3 to 5; brazilian specimens: ovotestis = 20 to 21; prostata = 6 to 8). In the muscular system, the right aductor muscle scar is often longer than in brazilian specimens. The general morphology of muscular and reproductive systems is similar to that observe...
