Descriptions, distribution maps and figures are given for all taxa of the genus Pene Pallary, 1929. The distribution area of the genus ranges from the southern part of Turkey (provinces Mersin to Diyarbakir) in the north to the West-Bank in the south; most of the species are restricted in their distribution to the mountainous coastal area. In total 9 species are recognized: Pene syriaca (L. Pfeiffer, 1846), Pene louisi (Germain, 1911), Pene kotschyi (L. Pfeiffer, 1854), Pene naegelei (O. Boettger, 1898), Pene ponteripa spec. nov., Pene brunnea (P. Hesse, 1914), Pene bulimoides (L. Pfeiffer, 1842), Pene galilaea Heller, 1972, and Pene provecta (Westerlund, 1897). Full synonymy is given, based on the study of most of the original types. None of the species live sympatrically. The distribution maps show that especially the mountainous area of western Syria is still largely unexplored with respect to its malacofauna.
