Geotrochus is a genus of air-breathing land snails, terrestrial pulmonate gastropod mollusks in the family Trochomorphidae. [1]
Species within the genus Geotrochus include:
Diplommatina is a genus of land snails with an operculum, terrestrial gastropod mollusks in the family Diplommatinidae.
Georissa is a genus of minute land snails, terrestrial gastropod mollusks in the family Hydrocenidae. Although the species are best known for living on the surface of limestone rocks, they are often also found in and on the vegetation and on non-calcareous rocks. One species, Georissa filiasaulae, is cavernicolous. It is only known from two caves in the Sepulut area of Sabah, Malaysian Borneo, where its above-ground sister species, Georissa saulae, inhabits the rocks outside of the cave, and is connected to the cave snail via narrow zones of hybridization at the cave entrances. Possibly, G. filiasaulae has evolved without ever having been fully separated from its ancestor, a process known as speciation-with-gene-flow.
Japonia is a genus of land snails with opercula, terrestrial gastropods in the subfamily Cyclophorinae of the family Cyclophoridae.
Kaliella is a genus of air-breathing land snails or semi-slugs, terrestrial pulmonate gastropod mollusks in the family Chronidae.
Opisthostoma is a genus of minute land snails with opercula, terrestrial gastropod mollusks or micromollusks in the family Diplommatinidae.
Trochomorpha is a genus of air-breathing land snails, terrestrial pulmonate gastropod mollusks in the family Trochomorphidae.
Videna is a genus of terrestrial pulmonate gastropod mollusks in the family Trochomorphidae.
Diplommatinidae is a family of small land snails, also known as staircase 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.
Paralaoma is a genus of very small air-breathing land snails, terrestrial pulmonate gastropod mollusks or micromollusks in the subfamily Laominae of the family Punctidae, the dot snails.
Dyakia is a genus of air-breathing land snails, terrestrial pulmonate gastropod mollusks in the family Dyakiidae.
Everettia is a genus of air-breathing land snails, terrestrial pulmonate gastropod mollusks in the family Dyakiidae.
Hemiplecta is a genus of air-breathing land snails, terrestrial pulmonate gastropod mollusks in the subfamily Ariophantinae of the family Ariophantidae.
Ditropopsis is a genus of small land snails with a gill and an operculum, terrestrial gastropod mollusks in the family Cyclophoridae.
Acmella is a genus of minute, land snails with an operculum, gastropod mollusks, or micromollusks, in the family Assimineidae.
Trachia is a genus of air-breathing land snails, terrestrial pulmonate gastropod mollusks in the family Camaenidae.
Plectostoma is a genus of air-breathing land snails in the family Diplommatinidae.
Microcystina is a large genus of air-breathing land snails, terrestrial pulmonate gastropod mollusks in the subfamily Macrochlamydinae of the family Ariophantidae.
Philalanka is a genus of gastropods belonging to the family Charopidae.
