Genus Vargapupa Páll-Gergely , n. gen.
Type species. Vargapupa oharai n. sp.
Diagnosis. Shell slender turriform, regularly ribbed; aperture rounded or slightly rectangular, with not or slightly angled columellar-parietal transition, and slightly angled parietal-palatal transition; there is a lower incision to the right of the bottom point of the aperture, at the starting point of the keel; the parietal side of the aperture usually straight; peristome simple-looking; an elevated keel runs on the basal side of the shell around the umbilicus; keel starts from the lower basal apertural lip and flattens gradually on the ventral side of the body whorl and terminated close to the columellar-palatal transition of the aperture; operculum unknown.
Differential diagnosis. Differs from Pseudopomatias and Csomapupa n. gen. by the presence of the basal keel. For the differences with Nodopomatias and see there.
Etymology. The new genus is dedicated to András Varga, prominent Hungarian malacologist, the friend of the authors. His contribution to Vietnamese malacofauna is very important. The name Vargapupa is the combination of the family name Varga and Pupa.
Content. V. oharai n. sp., V. biheli n. sp.
Distribution ( Fig. 7 View FIGURE 7 ): The two species of Vargapupa n. gen. species are known in the northern Annamese Mountains (French: Chaîne Annamitique), in Northern Vietnam and Laos.
