Planorbidae

Drepanotrema sp., copyright Mil Marques.

Belongs within: Hygrophila.
Contains: Ancylini, Laevapicini, Ferrissia, Planorbini, Helisomatini, Segmentina.

The Planorbidae are a diverse, cosmopolitan group of air-breathing freshwater snails. Members vary between the high-spired Miratestinae, planispiral Planorbinae and limpet-like Ancylinae. Nevertheless, they may be united by features of the prostrate and gonad diverticula, as well as by molecular data.

Significant representatives include Drepanotrema, a Neotropical genus with subglobose whorls and a narrowly lunate aperture.
