Epiphragmophoridae is a family of air-breathing land snails, terrestrial pulmonate gastropod mollusks in the superfamily Helicoidea (according to the taxonomy of the Gastropoda by Bouchet & Rocroi, 2005).[3] This family has no subfamilies.[3]
Shileyko (2004) listed 40 species within Epiphragmophoridae.[4] There are recognized 65 species within Epiphragmophoridae in 2017.[2]
Anatomy
This family is defined by the absence of a diverticulum. These snails have one dart apparatus with a stylophore (dart sac), and one or two mucus glands that are inserted on the dart sac and on the accessory sac, or at the base of the dart sac.
