Neritopsidae is a family of small sea snails and freshwater snails in the clade Cycloneritimorpha (according to the taxonomy of the Gastropoda by Bouchet & Rocroi, 2005).

Contents

The great majority of species within this family are only known as fossils. The few species which are extant are sometimes termed "living fossils". [1]

Taxonomy

2005 taxonomy

This family consists of three following subfamilies (according to the taxonomy of the Gastropoda by Bouchet & Rocroi, 2005):

2007 taxonomy

Bandel (2007) [2] have established two new subfamilies. But he recognizes Naticopsinae at family level as Naticopsidae with newly created subfamilies in it. [2]

Genera

Genera within the family Neritopsidae include:

The only extant genera are Neritopsis and Pluviostilla from subfamily Neritopsinae.
