Oleacinidae is a taxonomic family of air-breathing land snails, terrestrial pulmonate gastropod mollusks in the clade Eupulmonata (according to the taxonomy of the Gastropoda by Bouchet & Rocroi, 2005).
Anatomy
[edit]In this family, the number of haploid chromosomes lies between 26 and 30 (according to the values in this table).[2]
Taxonomy
[edit]2005 taxonomy
[edit]The family Oleacinidae is classified within the informal group Sigmurethra, itself belonging to the clade Stylommatophora within the clade Eupulmonata (according to the taxonomy of the Gastropoda by Bouchet & Rocroi, 2005).[3]
The family Oleacinidae consists of the following subfamilies (according to the taxonomy of the Gastropoda by Bouchet & Rocroi, 2005):
- Oleacininae H. Adams & A. Adams, 1855 - synonyms: Polyphemidae Gistel, 1868 (inv.); Glandinidae Bourguignat, 1877; Streptostylini H. B. Baker, 1941
- Euglandininae H. B. Baker, 1941[4]
- Varicellinae H. B. Baker, 1941[5]
2010 taxonomy
[edit]Thompson (2010)[6] have redefined subfamilies in Spiraxidae and have moved Euglandininae and Streptostylinae as subfamilies of Spiraxidae.
Genera
[edit]Genera in the family Oleacinidae include:
subfamily Oleacininae
- Oleacina Röding, 1798 - type genus of the family Oleacinidae[3]
- Palaeoglandina Wenz, 1914[citation needed]
- Pseudoleacina Wenz, 1914[citation needed]
subfamily Varicellinae
- Varicella L. Pfeiffer, 1854 - type genus of the subfamily Varicellinae[3]
