Bothriembryon is a genus of tropical air-breathing land snails, terrestrial pulmonate gastropod mollusks in the family Bothriembryontidae.[3]
B. J. Smith (1992)[4] made the last review of the genus summarizing all known data.[2]
Distribution
The land snail genus Bothriembryon is endemic to Australia but forms part of the Gondwanan element in the superfamily Orthalicoidea.[2] Bothriembryon species are mostly patchy in their distribution.[2]
Taxonomy
This genus was classified with the Bulimulidae by Pilsbry (1900),[5] Breure (1979)[6] and by B. J. Smith (1992).[2][4]
It was classified in tribe Bulimulini, in subfamily Bulimulinae within the family Orthalicidae according to the taxonomy of the Gastropoda by Bouchet & Rocroi, 2005.[7]
Breure et al. (2010)[8] moved Bothriembryon to Placostylidae.[8]
Breure & Romero (2012)[3] confirmed previous results from 2010 and they renamed Placostylidae to Bothriembryontidae.[3]
