Tropidophora michaudi is a species of land snail with a gill and an operculum, a terrestrial gastropod mollusk in the family Pomatiidae.
Tropidophora fimbriata was originally described as Cyclostoma Michaudi by Jean-Pierre Sylvestre de Grateloup in 1840. [2]
Grateloup's original text (the type description) in Latin language reads as follows:
