Shell description




Drawing of a shell of Truncatella bilabiata


This family of snails have small shells which lose their apical whorls as they continue to grow, giving the shells a truncated and cylindrical appearance.



Subfamilies

  • subfamily Truncatellinae Gray, 1840

  • subfamily Geomelaniinae Kobelt & Möllendorff, 1897[3]

Truncatellinae



  • Truncatella Risso, 1826[4] - type genus of the family Truncatellidae[2]
