Neocrassa
Neocrassa is a monotypic genus of large, air-breathing land snails native to Epirus and Kerkyra in northwestern Greece and to southern Albania. It contains a single species, Neocrassa neocrassa.
Originally described as a subgenus of Codringtonia, Neocrassa was elevated to genus level following molecular phylogenetic analyses. There are several characters that distinguish Neocrassa from Codringtonia: distal part of flagellum coiled, long diverticulum of bursa copulatrix, strongly branched mucous glands, missing atrial stimulator, love dart anchor-like in cross-section, and a different course of mating.
