Abstract
A new genus of viviparid snail, Dalipaludinagen. nov., from the Yunnan Plateau of China is described within an integrative taxonomic framework based on data from the mitochondrial COI marker and morphology. Dalipaludina can be distinguished from all other viviparid genera by a unique combination shell, operculum and radula characters. Four species are assigned here to the new genus, Dalipaludina delavayanacomb. nov., Dalipaludina oxytropoidescomb. nov., Dalipaludina occidentaliscomb. nov., and Dalipaludina pyramidellacomb. nov., and one species is newly assigned to Margarya, Margarya dianchiensiscomb. nov. The four species of Dalipaludina are allopatrically distributed in shallow water lentic habitats at high altitude regions of the Yunnan Plateau.
