Description

Cochliopidae snails are characterized by sharp, elongated spire-like structures, and can be found in rivers or brackish water.[2]

2005 taxonomy

The family Cochliopidae consists of 3 subfamilies (according to the taxonomy of the Gastropoda by Bouchet & Rocroi, 2005):[4]

  • Cochliopinae Tryon, 1866 - synonyms: Mexithaumatinae D. W. Taylor, 1966, Paludiscalinae D. W. Taylor, 1966
  • Littoridininae Thiele, 1928
  • Semisalsinae Guiusti & Pezzoli, 1980 - synonym: Heleobiini Bernasconi, 1991

Genera

Liu et al. (2001)[5] have recognized 34 genera with more than 260 species within the subfamily Cochliopinae.[5]

Strong et al. (2008)[1] have recognized 246 freshwater species within Cochliopidae.[1]

Genera within the family Cochliopidae include:

subfamily Cochliopinae
