Vitrinidae is a family of small, air-breathing land snails and semi-slugs, terrestrial pulmonate gastropod mollusks in the superfamily Limacoidea (according to the taxonomy of the Gastropoda by Bouchet & Rocroi, 2005).[1]
Distribution
[edit | edit source]The distribution of the Vitrinidae includes the Nearctic, western Palearctic, eastern Palearctic, and Ethiopian zones, as well as Hawaii.[2]
Anatomy
[edit | edit source]Snails in this family make and use love darts made of chitin.
In this family, the number of haploid chromosomes lies between 26 and 35 (according to the values in this table).[3]
