Hungerfordia Beddome, 1889 is a land snail genus of the family Diplommatinidae, which shows extensive endemic radiation in the Palau (Belau) islands. Although 42 species or subspecies of the genus have been named to date, many species remain to be described. In this article, we describe ten new taxa of the genus: H. goniobasis exserta subsp. nov., H. ngereamensis sp. nov., H. spiroperculata sp. nov., H. fragilipennis sp. nov., H. brachyptera sp. nov., H. elegantissima anomphala subsp. nov., H. nodulosa sp. nov., H. irregularis sp. nov., H. chilorhytis sp. nov., H. globosa sp. nov.
亨格福德蜗牛属(Hungerfordia)由贝德姆(Beddome)于1889年建立,是 Diplommatinidae 科的一种陆地蜗牛属,在帕劳(帛琉)群岛呈现出广泛的特有辐射现象。尽管该属至今已命名了42个物种或亚种,但仍有许多物种有待描述。在本文中,我们描述了该属的十个新分类单元:新亚种 H. goniobasis exserta subsp. nov.、新物种 H. ngereamensis sp. nov.、新物种 H. spiroperculata sp. nov.、新物种 H. fragilipennis sp. nov.、新物种 H. brachyptera sp. nov.、新亚种 H. elegantissima anomphala subsp. nov.、新物种 H. nodulosa sp. nov.、新物种 H. irregularis sp. nov.、新物种 H. chilorhytis sp. nov.、新物种 H. globosa sp. nov.
