Integrative taxonomy of Gymnobela and Pontiothauma (Conoidea: Raphitomidae) from Australian waters provides more evidence of transoceanic distribution in deep-sea gastropods

The samples studied herein were selected among all deep-sea Raphitomidae ethanol-preserved (=wet) material from the malacological collections of the Australian Museum, Sydney (AMS) and the Bavarian State Collection of Zoology, Munich, Germany (ZSM). All
studied material was collected during the voyage IN2017_V03 in the Tasman and Coral seas (O’Hara 2019), targeting
(among other sites) a number of Commonwealth Marine Reserves (CMRs), the voyages IN2021_V04 and IN2022_V08 off the Australian Indian Ocean Territories (AIOT) Christmas and Cocos Islands (O’Hara 2021, 2022) and AFRIDEEP in the south-western Indian Ocean.
The data has been acquired on the following RV Investigator voyage(s) <a href=\"https://www.marine.csiro.au/data/trawler/survey_details.cfm?survey=IN2015_C01\">IN2015_C01</a> <a href=\"https://www.marine.csiro.au/data/trawler/survey_details.cfm?survey=IN2017_V03\">IN2017_V03</a> <a href=\"https://www.marine.csiro.au/data/trawler/survey_details.cfm?survey=IN2021_V04\">IN2021_V04</a> and <a href=\"https://www.marine.csiro.au/data/trawler/survey_details.cfm?survey=IN2022_V08\">IN2022_V08</a> with links to additional metadata, datasets, events, deployments, publications etc.
