Phylogenetic evidence suggests the non-validity of the Iberian land snail genus and confirms its synonymy with (Helicidae).

The monospecific genus was described in the year 2021 including a single species (). However, its description relied solely on morphological and anatomical data. In the present work, we use a fraction of the mitochondrial DNA cytochrome oxidase subunit I (COI), 16S ribosomal RNA (16S rRNA) and the nuclear large ribosomal subunit (LSU) to clarify its validity through phylogenetic positioning.

Mating Disruption of the Olive Moth (Bernard) in Olive Groves Using Aerosol Dispensers.

The olive moth (OM), (Bern.) (Lepidoptera: Yponomeutidae), is a major olive grove pest worldwide; however, until now, very few studies have investigated the effectiveness of mating disruption (MD) techniques against this pest. Experiments were carried out for two successive years (2019 and 2020) in three different olive groves in Andalucía (Southern Spain) to evaluate mating disruption's efficacy in controlling the OM from the first to the third generation.
