Shileyko (2004) listed 40 species within Epiphragmophorinae.[3] There are about 65 recognized species within Epiphragmophorinae in 2017.[4]
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.
Genera
Genera within the family Epiphragmophorinae include:
- Angrandiella Ancey, 1886[3]
- Dinotropis Pilsbry & Cockerell, 1937[3]
- Doeringina Ihering, 1929[3]
- Epiphragmophora Doering, 1874[5] - the type genus of the family Epiphragmophoridae.[2] It occurs from Argentina to Bolivia.[6]
