Contains: Euomphalus, Straparollus.
The Euomphalidae are a group of often discoidal gastropods known from the Ordovician to the Triassic, generally with a sharp dorsal ridge marking the position of the exhalant channel. In the Devonian genera Mastigospira and Odontomaria, the shell is straight or gently curved, and more or less triangular in cross section (Knight et al. 1960).
Characters (Knight et al. 1960): Shell mostly discoidal with wide umbilicus, but varying widely in form; abandoned early part of whorls closed off by septa; presumed exhalant channel generally present within outer-upper angulation, rarely with short slit or selenizone; outer calcitic shell may be pigmented, foreign materials such as other shells may be cemented to outer surface.
