Hungerfordia Beddome, 1889 is a terrestrial caenogastropod genus of the family Diplommatinidae endemic to the Palau (Belau) islands. Hungerfordia is radiated within the Palau islands and exhibits substantial morphological diversity. In this paper, the taxonomy of Hungerfordia species with low axial ribs is revised. Hungerfordia polymorpha (Crosse, 1866), H. inflatula (Crosse, 1866), H. crassilabris crassilabris (Beddome, 1889), H. lutea lutea (Beddome, 1889), H. ringens ringens (Crosse, 1866), H. pyramis pyramis (Crosse, 1866), and H. aurea (Beddome, 1889) are redescribed based on the syntypes and newly collected materials. The following new taxa are described: H. aspera sp. nov., H. basodonta sp. nov., H. microbasodonta sp. nov., H. rudicostata sp. nov., H. unisulcata sp. nov., H. longissima sp. nov., H. eurystoma sp. nov., H. crenata sp. nov., H. crassilabris tridentata subsp. nov., H. crassilabris attenuata subsp. nov., H. lutea hemilaevis subsp. nov., H. loxodonta sp. nov., H. omphaloptyx sp. nov., H. robiginosa sp. nov., H. angaurensis sp. nov., H. ringens rotundata subsp. nov., H. ringens ventrinodus subsp. nov., H. pyramis pteroma subsp. nov., H. spinoscapula sp. nov.

During disease surveys in 2021 and 2022, outbreaks of leaf spot were observed in East Asian hogweed () plants in fields located in Pyeongchang and Yeongwol, Gangwon Province, Korea. The disease incidence in the fields ranged from 2% to 50%. Based on the morphological and cultural characteristics, four single-conidium fungal isolates from the leaf spot symptoms were identified as sp.

Three novel strains within the genus (29887, 29892 and 29896) were isolated from healthy pigs during routine veterinary physical exams. All three strains were non-motile and non-spore-forming Gram-positive cocci. The complete genome of each strain was attained, and phylogenetic analyses were performed.
