Gymnarion is a genus of air-breathing land snails, terrestrial pulmonate gastropod mollusks or micromollusks in the family Urocyclidae.[1]
Description
[edit | edit source](Original description) These helixarionid snails possess minute, remote right and left shell-lobes. The penis features a subterminal retractor muscle and an epiphallus, the latter lacking a flagellum or other appendages. A long, club-shaped dart sac (amatorial gland) is present. [2]
