Some corrections and several additions are presented to theBibliography of Cuban terrestrial Mollusca, including re-lated and biohistorical papers on Cuban malacology (Breure& González-Guillén, 2010).

Key words: Gastropoda, Cuba, bibliography.

INTRODUCTION

The extremely rich biodiversity of land snails on Cuba iswell-documented in a vast literature base that, however, ispoorly accessible due to the limited distribution of Cubanscientific papers. Recently, we have provided a bibliographyon all papers known to us (Breure & González-Guillén,2010). In this report we concluded “Although we have basedourselves on different sources and cross-checked as much aspossible, this paper will contain errors like dating, spellingand alphabetization. We are aware that this compilation isevidently incomplete and additional references may befound. Nevertheless we hope that it will further ourknowledge on the highly diverse malacofauna of this is-land”.

Some reactions by colleagues now allow us to provide someadditional papers, to add some recent ones, and to make afew corrections. We also have included some popular scien-tific papers that may otherwise remain unnoticed with re-gard to Cuban land snails.

REMARKS AND CORRECTIONS

1) Although our bibliography is limited to terrestrialMollusca, some papers are included that treat taxa whichare considered terrestrial species by some, and marine onesby others. This is e.g. the case with the genus Truncatella andrelates to p. 16: Clench & Turner (1948a, b), but also to thereference of Kobelt, 1908, mentioned above.2) Some references of the same author unfortunately havebeen arranged under different names (e.g. FernándezMilera, J. and Milera, J.F. on page 18 and 25 respectively).This is due to the Spanish habit of having a double lastname (father’s and mother’s), and sometimes quoting only

the father’s, sometimes both, and sometimes the twoconnected by a hyphen.3) p. 20: The correct reference to Henderson (1912) is:HENDERSON, J.B., 1912. A day’s collecting at Antilla, Cuba. –The Nautilus 26: 2-3.4) p. 21: Henderson & Torre, 1911 should be: HENDERSON, J.B.1911. An incident in Cuban collecting. – The Nautilus 25:49-51.5) p. 25: The complete reference for Mesa, R., 1980: … –Ciencias Biológicas 4: 113-114.6) p. 29: Pruna, P.M., 1996.7) p. 33: Delete Torre, A. de la, 1929 and 1932 (should beTorre, C. de la, 1929b and 1932).8) p. 34: Delete the record of Walter, M. & E. Naranjo, 1991.Same record as Miller, W.B. & E. Naranjo-Garcia, 1991 onp. 25.
