Alcadia is a genus of tropical and subtropical land snails with an operculum, terrestrial gastropod mollusks in the subfamily Helicininae of the family Helicinidae. [2]
Alcadia differs from the Helicininae in having a slit in front of the aperture, into which is fitted the tooth-like process of the operculum. [1]
Species within the genus Alcadia include:
Ramsdenia is a genus of land snails with an operculum, terrestrial gastropod mollusks in the family Pomatiidae.
Helicinidae is a family of small tropical land snails which have an operculum. They are terrestrial operculate gastropod mollusks in the superfamily Helicinoidea.
Cerion is a genus of small to medium-sized tropical air-breathing land snails, terrestrial pulmonate gastropods in the family Cerionidae, noted for its extreme morphological diversity. The genus is endemic to the Caribbean region.
Chondropoma is a genus of small operculate land snails, terrestrial gastropods in the subfamily Chondropomatinae of the family Annulariidae.
Helicina is a genus of tropical and subtropical land snails with an operculum, terrestrial gastropod mollusks.
Taheitia is a genus of very small land snails that have an operculum and live near saltwater, maritime terrestrial gastropod mollusks in the family Truncatellidae.
Truncatella is a genus of very small land snails with an operculum, terrestrial gastropod mollusks in the family Truncatellidae. These small and minute snails live on land, very close to seawater. They walk with a strange looping action, and the adults have truncated shells. Many of the species are small enough to be considered micromollusks.
Lucidella is a genus of land snails with an operculum, terrestrial gastropod mollusks in the subfamily Vianinae of the family Helicinidae.
Zachrysia is a genus of air-breathing land snails, terrestrial pulmonate gastropod molluscs in the family Zachrysiidae

Pycnoptychia is a genus of a land snails, terrestrial gastropod mollusks in the family Urocoptidae.
Emoda is a genus of land snails with an operculum, terrestrial gastropod mollusks in the family Helicinidae.
Troschelviana is a genus of land snails with an operculum, terrestrial gastropod mollusks in the family Helicinidae.
Semitrochatella is a genus of land snails with an operculum, terrestrial gastropod mollusks in the family Helicinidae.
Rhytidopoma is a genus of land snails with an operculum, terrestrial gastropod mollusks in the family Pomatiidae.
Troschelvindex is a genus of land snails with an operculum: these terrestrial gastropod mollusks are in the family Pomatiidae.
Semitrochatella conica is a species of the genus Semitrochatella, land snails with an operculum, terrestrial gastropod mollusks in the family Helicinidae.
