The ancient Malili lake system on the Indonesian island Sulawesi hosts a large species flock of the viviparous freshwater gastropod Tylomelania. Molecular and morphological data have previously shown that this species flock resulted from three independent lake colonizations and subsequent adaptive radiations. In a recent taxonomic revision of these radiations 25 species have been recognized. Here we describe three new species from the system found during new sampling campaigns. Despite their highly distinct shell morphology, these species were previously overlooked because of their very restricted distribution range and, in one case, the very small size. Of these new species, two are endemic to a section of the Larona River, which drains the entire lake system, while the third species has only been found at one locality in central Lake Mahalona. The discovery of these species can contribute significantly to our understanding of evolution in the entire species flock, as two of the species form a basal branch of an entire clade and all show a high degree of habitat specialization. The local endemism of the Larona River species in particular makes them highly vulnerable to extinction caused by habitat destruction.

The absence of a conceptual terminology, sufficiently developed and widely accepted in the Russian literature, significantly hinders progress in the field of reproductive biology of diatoms, restricts communication and debate, prevents training and transfer of knowledge. The present work is an attempt, based on world literature and our own research experience, to summarize, systematize, add, and clarify the existing terms, concepts and definitions related to research which are focused on sex and sexual reproduction in diatoms. A glossary of key terms (more than 200, including synonyms) is provided. Terms refer to diatom reproductive biology, life cycles, fertilization, mating system, gender (including inheritance and determination of sex, as well as inheritance associated with sex). Contradictions between possible interpretations of certain terms are briefly discussed.
