Resumen
A pesar de los numerosos trabajos que abordan desde diferentes ópticas la sistemática de Physidae, la situación taxonómica de las entidades de esta familia presentes en la Argentina es aún confusa. Por lo tanto, se abordó el estudio de las 2 especies de hallazgo más frecuente en el país, realizando una actualización de la descripción de las mismas para confirmar su estatus taxonómico y facilitar su correcta identificación. Se analizaron ejemplares de 5 localidades diferentes de cada especie. Para la redescripción se analizaron fundamentalmente caracteres de la conchilla, morfología externa, rádula y reproductor. Las diferencias inter-específicas de las características de las conchillas y de las partes blandas fueron analizadas estadísticamente por separado, mediante análisis de los componentes principales y factorial discriminante. Los caracteres observados permitieron concluir que la correcta denominación de las especies aquí estudiadas es Stenophysa marmorata (Guilding, 1828) y Physa acuta Draparnaud, 1805. Si bien existen diferencias conquiológicas entre estas 2 especies, queda demostrado que es importante la observación de las partes blandas para una correcta determinación.
In spite of the several works about the systematic of Physidae, the taxonomic situation of the entities of this family present in Argentina is still confused. Therefore, the study of the 2 more frequent species in Argentina was approached, their description were updated to confirm its taxonomic status and to facilitate its correct identification. Individuals, from 5 different localities of each species, were analyzed. For re-description, fundamentally characteristics of shell, external morphology, radula, and reproductive system, were analyzed. Differences between species, on shell and soft parts characteristics, were separately analyzed, by means of statistical methods (principal component and discriminant analysis). The observed characters allowed concluding that the correct denomination of the studied species here is Stenophysa marmorata (Guilding, 1828) and Physa acuta Draparnaud, 1805. Although there are differences among shell of these 2 species, it was demonstrated that it is important the observation of the soft parts for a correct determination.
