Taxonomy: For all marine species, Project Gastropods uses the taxonomy in the online database WoRMS. When starting a new article, do not use sources of taxonomic information that predate the 2017 revision for all gastropod groups ("Revised Classification, Nomenclator and Typification of Gastropod and Monoplacophoran Families" by Philippe Bouchet & Jean-Pierre Rocroi, Bernhard Hausdorf, Andrzej Kaim, Yasunori Kano, Alexander Nützel, Pavel Parkhaev, Michael Schrödl and Ellen E. Strong in Malacologia, 2017, 61(1–2): 1–526.) (can be dowloaded at Researchgate.net), substituting the previous classification of 2005 Taxonomy of the Gastropoda (Bouchet & Rocroi, 2005).

Number of species[edit]

The article states "There are at least 810 species of molluscs living in the wild in Turkey. There are a total of 810 species of gastropods...". As gastropods are all mollusks, but not all mollusks are gastropods, the first figure seems to count only gastropods, despite that there are other varieties of mollusks in the world; if all the mollusks in Turkey are, in fact, gastropods, the article should say so. As it stands, this is a rather silly comparison (or it suggests a real sloppiness in the research--see also the passages commented out in the text). It should be edited to give a better figure for total mollusks; in the interim, perhaps the first sentence should be omitted. --Piledhigheranddeeper (talk) 17:40, 3 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

There was missing word "non-marine" and there was missing sentence about bivalves. Corrected and and bit updated. However there is still need more references for bivalves and for pulmonate freshwater snails. --Snek01 (talk) 21:16, 3 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
