Landouria omphalostoman. sp. is described from northern Yunnan, China. The new species is placed in the genusLandouriaGodwin-Austen, 1918 based on the presence of tuberculated flagellum and swollen basal part in the bursa copulatrix, and on the absence of dart sacs and mucous glands.L. omphalostoman. sp. is characterized by a horizontal aperture of the shell which is unique in the genus. This feature resembles those of only two other camaenid/bradybaenid taxa, species of the Chinese genusPseudaspasitaMöllendorff, 1902 and species of the Japanese genusCoelorusPilsbry, 1900. This is the first verified record of the genus in China and the easternmost record ofLandouria. This paper provides the taxonomic ground work for further studies of the repeated evolution of a horizontal aperture.
