This book provides a comprehensive overview of the subfamily Gastroc?ptidae. Members of this subfamily are commonly called "gastropods" and are fascinating shelled mollusks diversified into five subfamilies, this volume focusing on the Gastroc?ptinae. This subfamily includes the genera Chzenaxis, Gibbulina, Gastrocopta, Bothriopupa, Hypselostoma, Anauchen, Boysidia, Gyliauchnn, Aulacospira, and Systenostoma. The first part of the book introduces the biology, taxonomy, and terminology of the subfamily. The second part is dedicated to the systematic study of the ten genera which make up the Gastroc?ptinae, containing descriptions of species, subspecies, and variations. It also discusses the phylogenetic relationships between the genera and provides keys to aid in identification. This book will be a valuable resource for malacologists, zoologists, and anyone interested in the study of gastropods.
