GenusPagodapalainaChen, 2025 Pagodapalaina Chen in Chen et al. 2025: 390, 391. Type species. Pagodapalaina hortulanica Chen, 2025, by original designation. Remarks. The genus was recently separated from the more diverse Diplommatina s. l. based on differences in radular and shell morphology, as well as published molecular data (Webster et al. 2012; Boonmachai et al. 2023; Chen et al. 2025). It is characterised by a small, sinistral, conical to elongate-conical shell with angular whorls and prominent radial ribs that often form trough-like projections along the shell periphery. The genus currently comprises 17 species, which are mainly distributed in the Malay Peninsula and Sumatra, Indonesia. In Myanmar, the genus is recorded for the first time, as P. suratensis from the southern part of the Tanintharyi Region.
