Cryptozona is a genus of air-breathing land snails, terrestrial pulmonate gastropod mollusks in the family Ariophantidae. [1] These snails are restricted to South India and Sri Lanka. [2]
Twenty five species are recognized. [3]
Helix is a genus of large, air-breathing land snails native to Europe and the Mediterranean region. They are the type genus of the family Helicidae and among the first animal genera described by Carl Linnaeus. Members of the genus first appeared during the Oligocene. Like most land snails, Helix species are hermaphroditic, and like other helicids a courting pair will impale each other with hormone-rich love darts prior to exchanging sperm. Well-known species include Helix pomatia and Helix lucorum. Cornu aspersum – another well-known helicid – was originally described as a member of Helix, but the prevailing classification places it as the sole member of the sister genus Cornu.
Diplommatina is a genus of land snails with an operculum, terrestrial gastropod mollusks in the family Diplommatinidae.
Assimineidae is a family of minute snails with an operculum, gastropod mollusks or micromollusks in the superfamily Rissoidae. Many of these very small snails live in intermediate habitats, being amphibious between saltwater and land; others live in freshwater.
Diplommatinidae is a family of small land snails with an operculum, terrestrial gastropod mollusks in the superfamily Cyclophoroidea. The Cochlostomatinae Kobelt, 1902, were previously considered a subfamily of the Diplommatinidae, but are now known to be a separate family.
Cyclophoridae is a taxonomic family of small to large tropical land snails with an operculum, terrestrial gastropod mollusks in the informal group Architaenioglossa belonging to the clade Caenogastropoda.
Euglandina is a genus of predatory medium- to large-sized, air-breathing, land snails, terrestrial pulmonate gastropod mollusks in the family Spiraxidae.
Ariophantidae is a taxonomic family of air-breathing land snails and semi-slugs, terrestrial pulmonate gastropod mollusks in the superfamily Helicarionoidea.
Bradybaena is a genus of small, air-breathing land snails, or terrestrial molluscs in the family Bradybaenidae.
Ariophanta is a genus of air-breathing land snails, terrestrial pulmonate gastropod mollusks in the family Ariophantidae. The shell is sinistral or left-handed in its coiling.
Cyclophorus is a genus of operculate land snails, terrestrial gastropod mollusks in the family Cyclophoridae.
Plectopylidae is a taxonomic family of large air-breathing land snails, terrestrial pulmonate gastropod mollusks in the superfamily Plectopyloidea.
Chloritis is a genus of air-breathing land snails, terrestrial pulmonate gastropod mollusks in the subfamily Hadrinae of the family Camaenidae.
Hemiplecta is a genus of air-breathing land snails, terrestrial pulmonate gastropod mollusks in the subfamily Ariophantinae of the family Ariophantidae.
Cyclotus is a genus of tropical land snails in the family Cyclophoridae.
Euplecta is a genus of air-breathing land snails, terrestrial pulmonate gastropod mollusks in the family Ariophantidae.
Leptopomoides is a genus of air-breathing land snails, terrestrial pulmonate gastropod mollusks in the family Cyclophoridae. These snails are restricted to Western Ghats of India and Sri Lanka.
Tortulosa is a genus of air-breathing land snails, terrestrial pulmonate gastropod mollusks in the family Pupinidae. These snails are restricted to Western Ghats of India and Sri Lanka.
Dioryx is a genus of air-breathing land snails in the subfamily Alycaeinae of the family Cyclophoridae. It was formerly considered a subgenus of Alycaeus.
Ganesella is a genus of air-breathing land snails, terrestrial pulmonate gastropod mollusks in the subfamily Camaeninae of the family Camaenidae.
