Land snail biogeography and endemism in south-eastern Africa: Implications for the Maputaland-Pondoland-Albany biodiversity hotspot

Table 2. Land snail species selected for the study (n = 73; representing 12 genera and three families) and their endemism within the Maputaland-Pondoland-Albany (MPA) biodiversity hotspot, the MPA-Knysna province, the greater MPA region of land snail endemism, and the south-eastern Africa (SEA) dominion.
