Orthalicidae (orthalicid land snails) are a
mollusks are classified in the subfamily Orthalicoidea of the order Stylommatophora.[2]
They are medium-sized to large snails, from about 3 cm (about 1.2 inches) to 9 cm (about 3.5 inches) in shell length
Taxonomy
In former times, this family was often known as the Bulimulidae, but this term may also denote what today is the subfamily
Bulimulinae
. The subfamily Bulimulinae replaces the former family Bulimulidae Crosse & P. Fischer, 1873.
2005 taxonomy
The Orthalicidae belong to the
- subfamily Amphibuliminae P. Fischer, 1873 - synonym Peltellinae Gray, 1855 (check decision of International Commission on Zoological Nomenclature for Peltellinae) - 17 species[4]
- subfamily Bulimulinae Tryon, 1867 - 1243 species[4]
- tribe Bulimulini Tryon, 1867 - synonyms: Bulimidae Guilding, 1828 (inv.); Berendtiinae P. Fischer & Crosse, 1872; Bothiembryontidae Iredale, 1937
- tribe Odontostomini Pilsbry & Vanatta, 1898 - 125 species[4]
- tribe Simpulopsini Schileyko, 1999 - synonym: Tomogeridae Jousseaume, 1877
- subfamily Orthalicinae Albers, 1850 - synonym: Liguidae Pilsbry, 1891 - 83 species[4]
2010 taxonomy
Breure et al. (2010)[5] elevated Bulimulinae to Bulimulidae, Odontostomini to Odontostomidae, Amphibuliminae to Amphibulimidae.[5]
2012 taxonomy
Breure & Romero (2012)[6] confirmed previous results from 2010, additionally they elevated Simpulopsini to Simpulopsidae.[6]
