Ringicella
''Ringicella'' is a genus of tropical air-breathing land snails, terrestrial pulmonate gastropod mollusks in the family Odontostomidae. Adult snails of this genus have an extremely unusual shell morphology, very similar to that found in the genus '' Anostoma'' Fischer von Waldheim, 1807, of which this genus was previously considered to be merely a subgenus. The adult snails in this genus carry their shells upside down, with the spire or apex at the bottom, and the umbilicus at the top. Shell description The shell of ''Ringicella'' is very similar to that of '' Anostoma''. Shells of the genus ''Ringicella'' have an additional feature: the angular lamella and upper suprapalatal fold are concrescent, forming a perforation in the lip at its upper end. In addition, the apertural rim incorporates a small tube, which communicates with the interior of the shell. The width of adult shells varies from 18 to 25 mm.

Anostoma
''Anostoma'', common name the up-mouth snails, is a genus of tropical air-breathing land snails, terrestrial pulmonate gastropod mollusks in the family Odontostomidae.Breure A. S. H. & Ablett J. D. (2012) "Annotated type catalogue of the Bothriembryontidae and Odontostomidae (Mollusca, Gastropoda, Orthalicoidea) in the Natural History Museum, London". ''ZooKeys'' 182: 1-70. . Snails in this genus are found in Brazil. Adult snails in this genus have an extremely unusual shell morphology: the aperture of the adult shell faces directly "upwards", in other words, in the same direction as the spire. This seemingly impossible arrangement is made possible because the adult shell is carried upside down. In 1901, the American malacologist Henry Augustus Pilsbry commented that the adult shell of ''Anostoma'' is "so bizarre that in the total absence of information upon its life history, no useful theory can be formulated to account for its peculiarities." A very similar shell is found in ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Orthalicoidea
The Orthalicoidea are a superfamily of air-breathing land snails, terrestrial gastropod mollusks in the infraorder Orthalicoidei of the suborder HelicinaMolluscaBase eds. (2021). MolluscaBase.

Accessed through: World Register of Marine Species at: http://www.marinespecies.org/aphia.php?p=taxdetails&id=870047 on 2021-02-05 Distribution The Orthalicoidea is a dominant faunal element in the Neotropics, but also has a number of genera with a Gondwanan distribution. Taxonomy 2005 taxonomy This taxonomy, as accepted by Bouchet & Rocroi, was based on the study by Nordsieck, published in 1986, and the classification as formulated by Schileyko in 1999. However Bouchet & Rocroi diverged from this classification in uniting the families Bulimulidae and Orthalacidae. They also considered the family Placostylidae as a distinct family from Orthalicidae, and the family Coelociontidae a distinct family from Urocoptidae. However, the position of the families M ...

The subfamily Bulimulinae replaces the former family Bulimulidae Crosse & P. Fischer, 1873. 2005 taxonomy The Orthalicidae belong to the Orthalicoidea, a superfamily in the order Sigmurethra.
