Bulimulidae is a taxonomic family of medium-sized to large, air-breathing, tropical and sub-tropical land snails, terrestrial pulmonate gastropod molluscs in the superfamily Orthalicoidea.




Distribution


Distribution of species in the family Bulimulidae includes Ecuador (9 genera) and other South American countries. Some species also occur in North America.




Fossil record


The family's oldest fossil record dates from the late Cretaceous of Brazil (Itaboraí Basin).




Anatomy


Members of this family have a haploid chromosome number between 26 and 30 (according to the values in this table).
Shells of species within Bostrycinae have a smooth protoconch and the genital organs feature a relatively long penis sheath (ca. 1/4–1/6 total phallus length).




Taxonomy


Previously, the members of the Orthalicidae were also included in this family, as the subfamily Orthalicinae, and the taxa listed here were placed in their own subfamily, the Bulimulinae.

Bulimulinae was placed in the family Orthalicidae according to the taxonomy of the Gastropoda (Bouchet & Rocroi, 2005).
The subfamily Bulimulinae included 3 tribes:

Tribe Bulimulini Tryon, 1867 - synonyms: Bulimidae Guilding, 1828 (inv.); Berendtiinae P. Fischer & Crosse, 1872; Bothiembryontidae Iredale, 1937
Tribe Odontostomini Pilsbry & Vanatta, 1898 - synonym: Tomogeridae Jousseaume, 1877
Tribe Simpulopsini Schileyko, 1999




= 2010 taxonomy

=
Breure et al. (2010) moved Bothriembryon to Placostylidae (since 2012 as Bothriembryontidae), elevated Bulimulinae to Bulimulidae and Odontostomini to Odontostomidae.




= 2012 taxonomy

=
Breure & Romero (2012) confirmed previous results from 2010, additionally they elevated Simpulopsini to Simpulopsidae. There are three subfamilies within Bulimulidae:

subfamily Bulimulinae Tryon, 1867
subfamily Peltellinae Gray, 1855
subfamily Bostrycinae Breure, 2012
