Abstract in Portuguese
Neste estudo foram comparadas anatomicamente as espécies de gastrópodes terrestres pertencentes ao "complexo Megalobulimus paranaguensis" (M. paranaguensis, M. granulosus, M. abbreviatus, e M. foreli) e as espécies M. cf. haemastomus e M. aff. gummatus, utilizadas como comparativo externo. Todas foram comparadas conquiliologicamente entre si e com M. ovatus, M. sanctipauli, M. yporanganus, e M. gummatus. O complexo apresenta uma distribuição geográfica contígua entre o litoral sul de São Paulo e o nordeste do Rio Grande do Sul, mas não possuem embasamento morfológico que o sustente. Todas as espécies possuem um conjunto exclusivo de caracteres que as individualizam. M. paranaguensis e a simpátrica M. aff. gummatus compartilham caracteres na cavidade palial, sistema digestivo e reprodutivo, diferenciando-se morfologicamente das demais espécies e consideradas como espécies-irmãs. A esculturação de M. foreli e M. abbreviatus similares a M. sanctipauli infere que estas espécies sejam transferidas para o complexo homônimo. M. granulosus, com ocorrência para o litoral de Santa Catarina, possui uma concha singular, mas apresenta uma anatomia interna similar a M. abbreviatus. M. cf. haemastomus distribuiu-se pela depressão central do Rio Grande do Sul e Uruguai, com simpatria na região de Porto Alegre com M. abbreviatus diferenciando-se por caracteres na borda do manto e sistemas digestivo e reprodutivo. O confronto de M. aff. gummatus, com ocorrência no Vale do Ribeira em São Paulo, e M. gummatus de distribuição no Rio de Janeiro, evidenciou que a primeira é uma espécie independente

Abstract in English
This study compares anatomically species of the terrestrial gastropods belonging to the "complex Megalobulimus paranaguensis" (M. paranaguensis, M. granulosus, M. abbreviatus and M. foreli). M. aff. gummatus and M. cf. haemastomus was analyzed as outgroup. They also were conchologically compared with M. ovatus, M. sanctipauli, M. yporanganus and M. gummatus. The complex has a contiguous geographical distribution, between the south of São Paulo and northeastern Rio Grande do Sul States, but lacks morphological foundation supports. The species of the complex have a unique set of characters that individualizes it. M. paranaguensis and sympatric M. aff. Gummatus share characters in the palial cavity, digestive and reproductive systems, differing morphologically from other species, they are regarded as sister species. The shell sculpture of M. foreli and M. abbreviatus is similar to M. sanctipauli, infering that these species may be transferred to the complex M sanctipauli. The M. granulosus, occurring in Santa Catarina coastal zone, has a singular shell, but presents an internal anatomy similar to M. abbreviatus. The M. cf. haemastomus, distributed in the central depression of the Rio Grande do Sul State and Uruguay, sympatric in the region of Porto Alegre with M. abbreviatus, possesses different characters on the edge of the mantle and digestive and reproductive systems. The confrontation of M. aff. Gummatus, occurring in Vale do Ribeira, São Paulo, with M. gummatus, from Rio de Janeiro, showed that the first is an independent species
