WORKING CLASSIFICATION OF THE GASTROPODA 273<br />

in number of teeth. Oligomeha, Davisiana and Guttula<br />

have sensory papillae on the cephalic tentacles (Waren,<br />

unpubl), confirming their inclusion in the Vetigastropoda.<br />

3' Hickman & McLean (1990) recognised the affinities of<br />

Chilidontini and Calliotropini, by them recognised as tribes<br />

in the Trochidae, and outlined their similarities, while they<br />

considered the systematic position of Cataeginae uncer-<br />

tain, due to the highly apomorphic radula of the type spe-<br />

cies of Cataegis. Waren & Bouchet (1993) described a<br />

less modified radula in Cataegis meroglypta McLean &<br />

Quinn, 1987, but were still uncertain about the position.<br />

Recent discovery of an undescribed species on sunken<br />

wood in the Solomon Islands, with a chilodontine -<br />

calliotropine type of radula, as understood by Hickman &<br />

McLean (1990), makes it possible to, at least provision-<br />

ally, conclude relations between these taxa.<br />

38 We follow McLean & Hickman (1990) in regarding<br />

Eucyclus as a vetigastropod related to Chilodontidae.<br />

^ Content based on Tracey et al. (1 993). All fossil "archeo-<br />

gastropods" without slit and selenizone were classified<br />

" by Bändel & Fryda (1996) in a<br />

Trochomorpha ". They did not allocate Palaeozoic taxa<br />

morphogroup<br />

to any particular superfamily. Classification based on<br />

Hickman & McLean (1990) with modifications,<br />

* Classification based on Marshall (1995)<br />

*' Proconulidae ranked as a family of Trochoidea after<br />

Gründel {2000a).<br />

''^<br />

It is uncertain whether Solariellidae should be classi-<br />

fied in the Trochoidea or Seguenzioidea. The reduction<br />

in number of both lateral and marginal teeth may indi-<br />

cate seguenziid relations; in the absence of other infor-<br />

mation we have maintained a placement in Trochoidea.<br />

"3 Placement of Velainellidae in Trochoidea after Le Renard<br />

(pers comm ).<br />

** Classiftcation of Colloniinae adapted from Monari et al.<br />

(1995). Helicocryptinae synonymized with Ataphrinae<br />

by Monari et al., re-established as valid subfamily of<br />

Colloniidae by Gründel (2003)<br />

"5 Skeneinae treated as a subfamily of Turbinidae based<br />

on radula and 16S sequences (Waren, unpublished).<br />

* Tegulinae placed in Turbinidae based on radula and 16S<br />

sequences (Waren, unpublished).<br />

''''<br />

Phasianellidae is treated as a separate family on the basis<br />

of shell structure (Woodring, 1928; Robertson, 1985;<br />

Marcus & Marcus, 1960; Hedegaard 1990), with<br />

Tricoliidae also separated as distinct by some of these<br />

authors. Also, Bändel & Geldmacher (1996) have produced<br />

a phylogenetic scenario with Tricolia completely<br />

independent from Turbo (Phasianella not included).<br />

Sperm ultrastructure also differs between examined<br />

turbinids and Tricolia {Phasianella sperm not known)<br />

(Hodgson & Foster, 1992) Tricolia was supposed to be<br />

unique in Trochoidea in having two shell muscles (Marcus<br />

& Marcus, 1960), but this unusual condition may be re-<br />

lated to the elongate shape of the operculum; it also oc-<br />

curs in trochid limpets.<br />

* Young specimens of Phasianella have the same<br />

commarginal spiral line on the outside of the operculum<br />

as Gabnelona and Eugabrielona, suggesting that the<br />

latter genera are paedomorphic phasianellids. Large<br />

species of Phasianella and Tricolia have the same tendency<br />

to loss of the central tooth, oherwise known mainly<br />

from patellogastropods.<br />

*• The name Cocculiniformia originally encompassed all<br />

cocculiniform taxa (Haszprunar, 1987). Molecular work<br />

based on Coccopigya as representative of Cocculinidae<br />

and Notocrater as representative of Pseudococculinidae<br />

resulted in Cocculinoidea being polyphyletic (Colgan et<br />

al , 2003), with Lepetelloidea now placed in Vetigastropoda<br />

and Cocculinoidea placed outside them The<br />

name Cocculiniformia is kept here in a restricted sense<br />

to mark the distinctiveness of Cocculinoidea.<br />

^ Cocculinidae usually appears as a very distinct clade<br />

both in analyses based on morphology and on molecular<br />

data Relations to Neritimorpha have been suggested<br />

(e.g.. Ponder & Lindberg, 1997) and, more recently, to<br />

Patello- and Vetigastropoda (Colgan et al., 2003).<br />

5' Inclusion of Bathysciadiidae in Cocculinoidea after<br />

Strong et al. (2003), based on admittedly poor informa-<br />

tion on Bathysciadium. Bathysciadiidae share with<br />

Lepetellidae and Addisoniidae the habit of discarding<br />

the protoconch at the size of 0.3-0.6 mm, and this may<br />

indicate a currently unrecognized relationship<br />

^ Classification based on Moore (1960), with additions<br />

from Bändel {1992a), Tracey et al. (1993), Bändel &<br />

Fryda (1999), Fryda (1998c, 1999a) introduced two taxa,<br />

Cyrtoneritimorpha and Cycloneritimorpha, within the<br />

Neritimorpha. Cyrtoneritimorpha includes Ordovician-<br />

Permian gastropods with fishhook-like protoconchs<br />

Cycloneritimorpha unites all post-Palaeozoic Neritimorpha<br />

and may possibly also include the Palaeozoic<br />

Platyceratoidea and Nerrhenoidea.<br />

^ Oriostomatidae included in Euomphaloidea by<br />

Vostokova & Pchelintsev (in Pchelintsev & Korobkov,<br />

1960).<br />

^ Hypothesized by P J. Wagner (2002) to belong to the<br />

"euomphaline subclade".<br />

^ Based on molecular data, Kano et al. (2002) produced<br />

a phylogeny of the Recent Nentimorpha recognizing four<br />

clades: Hydrocenidae; Helicinidae + Neritiliidae;<br />

Neritidae + Phenacolepadidae; Neritopsidae + Titiscani-<br />

idae. Their groupings are followed here, with the result-<br />

ing clades ranked as superfamilies.<br />

* Classification based on Keen [in Moore, 1960].<br />

^ The Carboniferous Dawsonellidae are regarded by Kano<br />

et al. (2002) to be derived from an ancient Neritimorpha<br />

before the first bifurcation of the Neritopsoidea, and to<br />

be convergent in shell form with the Helicinidae.<br />

^ Deianiridae placed in Neritoidea by Bändel & Fryda<br />

(1999), regarded as the sister taxon of the Helicinidae<br />

by Kano et al. (2002).<br />

^ Neritiliidae ranked as family after Kano & Kase (2002).
