Taxonomy

Carychiinae is part of the family Ellobiidae (according to the taxonomy of the Gastropoda by Bouchet & Rocroi, 2005).[2]

Some authors consider Carychiidae as a separate family.[3]

Genera

Genera within the subfamily Carychiinae include:

  • Carychiella Strauch, 1977
  • Carychiopsina Kadolsky, 2020 †
  • Carychiopsis Sandberger, 1872 †
  • Carychium O. F. Müller, 1773 - type genus of the subfamily Carychiinae[2][4][5]
  • Koreozospeum Jochum, Prozorova, Sharyi-ool & Páll-Gergely, 2015 [6]
  • Ovicarychium Kadolsky, 2020 †
  • Turricarychium Kadolsky, 2020 †
  • Zospeum Bourguignat, 1856 [7][8][9][10][11][12]
  • Zuella Kadolsky, 2020 †

Ecology

One lineage of the Ellobioidea, the Carychiidae has successfully accomplished a complete transition onto land.[3] Extant carychiid snails inhabit aphotic and permanently wet epigean (Carychium) or subterranean (Zospeum) environments throughout their Holarctic distribution.[3] This dramatic shift from a marine to a terrestrial habitat has occurred independently of the stylommatophoran land-snails of the Eupulmonata.[3]
