Trochoidea (genus)
''Trochoidea'' is a genus of air-breathing land snails, terrestrial pulmonate gastropod mollusks in the subfamily Helicellinae of the family Geomitridae. MolluscaBase eds. (2022). MolluscaBase. Trochoidea T. Brown, 1827. Accessed through: World Register of Marine Species at: https://www.marinespecies.org/aphia.php?p=taxdetails&id=426412 on 2022-08-04 The name means "those that are shaped like a top". (The same name, Trochoidea is currently also used for a superfamily of sea snails with gills, a superfamily that includes the top shells, Trochidae, and the turban shells, Turbinidae.) Species Species within the genus ''Trochoidea'' include: * '' Trochoidea caroni'' (Deshayes, 1830) * '' Trochoidea cucullus'' (Martens, 1873) * '' Trochoidea cumiae'' (Calcara, 1847) * '' Trochoidea elata'' (A.E.J. Férussac, 1819) (synonym: ''Helix elata'' Férussac, 1819) * '' Trochoidea elegans'' (Gmelin, 1791) * '' Trochoidea liebetruti'' (Albers, 1852) * '' Trochoidea pumilio'' (Dillwy ...

Gastropod Shell
The gastropod shell is part of the body of a Gastropoda, gastropod or snail, a kind of mollusc. The shell is an exoskeleton, which protects from predators, mechanical damage, and dehydration, but also serves for muscle attachment and calcium storage. Some gastropods appear shell-less (slugs) but may have a remnant within the mantle, or in some cases the shell is reduced such that the body cannot be retracted within it (semi-slug). Some snails also possess an operculum that seals the opening of the shell, known as the Aperture (mollusc), aperture, which provides further protection. The study of mollusc shells is known as conchology. The biological study of gastropods, and other molluscs in general, is malacology. Shell morphology terms vary by species group. Shell layers The gastropod shell has three major layers secreted by the Mantle (mollusc), mantle. The calcareous central layer, tracum, is typically made of calcium carbonate precipitated into an organic matrix known as c ...

Cernuella Amanda
''Cernuella'' is a genus of small air-breathing land snails, pulmonate gastropod mollusks in the family Geomitridae, the hairy snails and their allies. MolluscaBase eds. (2020). MolluscaBase. Cernuella Schlüter, 1838. Accessed through: World Register of Marine Species at: http://www.marinespecies.org/aphia.php?p=taxdetails&id=426368 on 2020-08-04 The native range of the genus is primarily Mediterranean. Some species such as ''Cernuella virgata'' have become significant invasive species, agricultural pests, in parts of Australia. This same species of the genus has been recovered in archaeological excavations from the Roman Empire occupation of Volubilis, an ancient habitation site in present-day Morocco. ''Cernuella'' snails create and use love darts as part of their courtship and mating behavior. Species Species within the genus ''Cernuella'' include: * '' Cernuella aginnica'' (Locard, 1882) * '' Cernuella amanda'' (Rossmässler, 1838) * '' Cernuella aradasii'' (Pirajno, ...
