Gulella streptostelopsis
''Gulella streptostelopsis'' is a species of minute air-breathing land snail, a terrestrial pulmonate gastropod mollusk in the family Streptaxidae.
''Gulella streptostelopsis'' was described by Adolph Cornelis van Bruggen in 2007 based on material (except for one specimen) obtained for the National Museum of Natural History in Leiden (Nationaal Natuurhistorisch Museum, formerly Rijksmuseum van Natuurlijke Historie) by Ms H.M. Meredith (Newquay, U.K.; formerly Malawi) and her co-workers in the period 1975-1988.〔
The minute, almost smooth, shell (length 2.0-2.4 mm) resembles that of the genus ''Streptostele'', but is characterized by three-fold apertural dentition and just under six whorls.〔 This taxon may represent a new genus.〔
== Etymology ==
The specific name ''streptostelopsis'' is of the resemblance of ''Streptostele''.〔 It is Latinized Greek for ''Streptostele''-like and refers to the likeness to shells of the streptaxid genus ''Streptostele''.〔 The kindred epithet ''streptosteloides'' already exists in the family Streptaxidae. The original combination was ''Opeas streptosteloides'' Von Martens, 1897, but this taxon appears to be a streptaxid, now named ''Streptostele streptosteloides'' (Von Martens, 1897).〔 In view of the similarity of the names and probable causes for confusion in possibly closely allied genera the epithet ''streptostelopsis'' was proposed.〔
