''Euchemotrema'' is a genus of small, air-breathing land snails, terrestrial animal, terrestrial pulmonate gastropod molluscs in the family Polygyridae. Shell description The shell of species in this genus is usually about 8 to 11 mm in diameter (about 3/8 inch). The shells are brown with a velvety surface, similar to that of ''Stenotrema'', and, in fact, this genus is sometimes combined into ''Stenotrema''.Pilsbry, Henry A. 1940. Land Mollusca of North America (North of Mexico)'. Acad. Nat. Sci. Philadelphia, Monograph 3, vol. 1(2): 675-688. These snails typically have a less complex aperture than ''Stenotrema'': "without a tooth within the outer arc of the lip and with no notch in the basal lip". There are also peculiarities of the male anatomy that separate the two genera. Distribution ''Euchemotrema'' is widely distributed in eastern and central North America. Species This genus includes the following species and subspecies: *''Euchemotrema cheatumi'' (R. W. Fulling ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
