Pleurodontidae
Template:Short description Template:Automatic taxobox
Pleurodontidae is a family of air-breathing land snails, terrestrial pulmonate gastropod mollusks in the superfamily Helicoidea. [1]
This family is classified within the order Stylommatophora within the superorder Eupulmonata (according to the taxonomy of the Gastropoda by Bouchet & Rocroi, 2005).[2] This family has no subfamilies.[2]
The family Pleurodontidae includes some American taxa that used to be included within the Australasian family Camaenidae, a taxon whose monophyly was in doubt.
Anatomy
Pleurodontids are defined by a missing diverticulum. The stimulatory organ is equally missing.
