}Mangroves of the Indo-West Pacific have remained poorly explored, so even the diversity of the onchidiid slugs, which are some of the most abundant animals in mangroves of the Indo-West Pacific, is not well known. Thanks to several years spent exploring mangroves in the Indo-West Pacific (more than 260 stations), especially in South-East Asia, the diversity of mangrove gastropods can now be addressed through revisions following an integrative taxonomy approach (nomenclature, field observations…

A new species and new records of Onchidium slugs (Gastropoda, Euthyneura, Pulmonata, Onchidiidae) in South-East Asia
- Biology, MedicineZooKeys
- 2019
A new species of Onchidium melakense is described, a rare species with only nine individuals found at three mangrove sites in the Andaman Islands and the Strait of Malacca, which is delineated based on mitochondrial (COI and 16S) and nuclear (ITS2 and 28S) DNA sequences as well as comparative anatomy.

The present contribution shows again that species delineation is greatly enhanced by considering comparative anatomy and nuclear DNA sequences in addition to mitochondrial DNA sequences, and that thorough taxonomic revisions are the best and most efficient path to accurate biodiversity knowledge.

Distribution of Onchidium damelii Semper (Gastropoda, Onchidiidae)
- Biology
- 1987
The pulmonate gastropod Onchidium damelii Semper has a widespread tropical Indo-Pacific intertidal distribution and shows habitat preference rather than a zonal (tidal pattern) distri bution within the mangroves; population density is associated with substrate particle size and organic content; and temperature relationships were investigated.
Anatomical Re-Description of the Terrestrial Onchidiid Slug Semperoncis montana (Plate, 1893)
- Biology
- 2010
The anatomy of Semperoncis montana, a terrestrial species that lives in high-elevation rain forests of the Philippines Islands, is redescribed based on 91 specimens representing ten populations and Ontogenetic changes in the shape of male organs are described and illustrated in detail, indicating that S. montana was described based on immature specimens of the later named Platevindex apoikistes.

A phylogeny constructed using partial sequences of two mitochondrial genes and one nuclear ribosomal RNA gene from 32 samples comprising five genera showed that the taxa clustered in two main groups of six species, and it was clear that COI will be useful in discriminating onchidiid species-group taxa.
