0F56A36EFF9EFFBCFF0C4738FC43C94B.taxon	diagnosis	Diagnosis. A spindle-shaped Renea species with relatively widely-spaced, strong ribs (ca. 18 above aperture) without spiral striation, a deep suture, and a strong angularis that runs on ca. half parietal callus.	en	Páll-Gergely, Barna, Grego, Jozef (2022): A Georgian and an Iranian new species of Renea G.

0F56A36EFF9EFFBCFF0C4738FC43C94B.taxon	description	Description. Shell spindle-shaped with blunt apex, light reddish brown, with ca, 5.5 convex whorls separated by deep suture. Protoconch smooth, glossy, protoconch-teleoconch boundary not clearly discernible, ribbing starts after ca. 0.75 whorls. Teleoconch strongly ribbed, ribs equidistant, widely-spaced compared to most congeners, with ca. 18 ribs above aperture in apertural view. Spiral striation absent. Apertural rim asymmetrically arched in lateral view: its upper part leans slightly deeper backwards than lower part. A sinulus not clearly marked, parieto-palatal junction pointed. Palatal wall normally curved. Neck bulge missing. Peristome purple, not expanded on palatal part, but slightly expanded on basal and columellar area, where it covers umbilicus. Parietal callus visible, it is the direct continuation of columellar peristome without any interruption. Angularis whitish, strong, pointed, elongated triangular, situated on the anterior edge of parietal callus, starts ca. at middle of parietal callus and gradually increases towards parieto-palatal junction until it reaches its maximal height. Between highest point of angularis and palatal wall there is a narrow channel with much weaker parietal callus (even ribs of body whorls visible). Umbilicus is covered by reflected peristome. Measurements (in mm). SH = 3.7 – 3.8, SW = 1.45 – 1.5 (n = 3).	en	Páll-Gergely, Barna, Grego, Jozef (2022): A Georgian and an Iranian new species of Renea G.

0F56A36EFF9EFFBCFF0C4738FC43C94B.taxon	diagnosis	Differential diagnosis. This new species differs from all other Renea species by the spindle-shaped (not conical or cylindrical) shell shape, and the angularis, that runs along the parietal callus instead of being oriented into the aperture as in Southern European Renea species (Renea berica Niero, Nardi & Braccia, 2012, Renea kobelti (A. J. Wagner, 1910), Renea spectabilis (Rossmässler, 1839) (Renea veneta (Pirona, 1865 )). Moreover, the rib density is lower than in the majority of Renea species, and most species has dense spiral striation between the ribs (Boeters et al. 1989, Niero et al. 2012, Lika et al. 2021).

A slender conical Renea species with relatively ca. 20 – 22, low ribs above aperture, a shallow suture, distinct spiral striation, and a strong angularis that runs on ca. half parietal callus.	en	Páll-Gergely, Barna, Grego, Jozef (2022): A Georgian and an Iranian new species of Renea G.

0F56A36EFF9DFFBDFF0C472BFECBC9D7.taxon	description	Description. Shell slender conical with moderately pointed apex, light brownish, with ca, 5.5 convex whorls separated by shallow suture. Protoconch smooth, glossy, protoconch-teleoconch boundary not clearly discernible, ribbing and spiral striation starts after ca. 1 – 1.25 whorls. Teleoconch ribbed, ribs low, equidistant (although higher and more widely-spaced on last ca. quarter whorl), with ca. 20 – 22 ribs above aperture in apertural view. Fine spiral striation present on entire teleoconch. Apertural rim asymmetrically arched in lateral view: its upper part leans slightly deeper backwards than lower part. A sinulus not clearly marked, parieto-palatal junction pointed. Upper part of palatal region nearly straight or even concave resulting in an almost quadrangular aperture shape. Neck bulge missing. Peristome and angularis light brown, do not differ from other parts of teleoconch in colour, overall thin, not expanded on palatal part, but slightly expanded on basal and columellar area, where it covers umbilicus. Parietal callus visible, it is the direct continuation of columellar peristome without any interruption. Angularis strong, pointed, elongated triangular, situated on the anterior edge of parietal callus, starts ca. at middle of parietal callus and gradually increases towards parieto-palatal junction until it reaches its maximal height. Between highest point of angularis and palatal wall there is a narrow channel with much weaker parietal callus (even ribs of body whorls visible). Angularis continues inside aperture as a slight, gradually weakening angular lamella. Umbilicus is covered by reflected peristome. Measurements (in mm). SH = 3.1 – 3.2, SW = 1.3 (n = 2).	en	Páll-Gergely, Barna, Grego, Jozef (2022): A Georgian and an Iranian new species of Renea G.

0F56A36EFF9DFFBDFF0C472BFECBC9D7.taxon	diagnosis	Differential diagnosis. The shell is slender conical as most other Renea species, but the shell width / shell height is higher than that of other Southern European Renea, which are more elongate, conical or cylindrical. Moreover, the strong angularis that runs along the parietal callus is only present in R. caucasica n. sp. Renea caucasica n. sp. is larger, have stronger (more elevated), and more widely-spaced ribs, lack the spiral striation between ribs, has a deeper suture, and the palatal part of the aperture is more rounded, whereas it is straight or slightly concave in R. nemethi n. sp.	en	Páll-Gergely, Barna, Grego, Jozef (2022): A Georgian and an Iranian new species of Renea G.
