“…The shells of all species, both snails and semislugs, are thin and glossy with reduced sculpture. Early species descriptions were primarily based on shells (e.g., Pfeiffer, 1849Pfeiffer, , 1850Pfeiffer, , 1852Pfeiffer, , 1853Cox, 1864Cox, , 1868Cox, , 1871Cox, , 1873Brazier, 1875aBrazier, , 1875bBrazier, , 1876b, as was the taxonomic framework put together in a series of papers by Iredale (1933Iredale ( , 1937aIredale ( , 1937bIredale ( , 1941Iredale ( , 1942, which included descriptions of 19 new, mostly monotypic genera. Subsequently, a number of small-scale anatomical investigations into single genera or species were published (Dartnall and Kershaw, 1978;Kershaw, 1979Kershaw, , 1981Kershaw, , 1982Kershaw, , 1988Stanisic, 1993aStanisic, , 1993bScott, 1995), but the underlying taxonomy essentially remained unchanged.…”
