Abstract

Six gastropod species from the Late Triassic Nayband Formation are reported. The following taxa are introduced as new: Trochonodus iranicus n. gen., n. sp. and Cryptaulax convexa n. sp. The following species are transfered to Trochonodus n. gen.: Riselloidea aliabadensis Nützel and Senowbari-Daryan 1999 (type species of Trochonodus), Riselloidea biarmata (Münster), Riselloidea bitorquata (Hébert and Eudes-Deslongchamps), Scalaria limatula Ammon, and Amberleya trimonilis (Orbigny). The holotype of Chulitnacula jenningsi (Douglas) is newly illustrated and described. According to the current state of knowledge, the gastropod faunas of the Nayband Formation near Esfahan and near Tabas differ considerably from each other. They share only Anulifera binodosa. The Anulifera species-cluster has representatives in the Norian/Rhaetian from the North Alps, Iran, Burma, and South China.
