TL;DR: Minute snails found in streams of the Darling Range, Western Australia, are described here as a new species, Glacidorbis occidentalis, consistent with theories proposing a common Gondwanic origin for much of this region's freshwater fauna and that of south-eastern Australia.
Abstract: Minute snails found in streams of the Darling Range, Western Australia, are described here as a new species, Glacidorbis occidentalis. Glacidorbis has a southern distribution, occurring in south-eastern Australia, Tasmania, and southern Chile.
