edit

The distribution of the Gastrocoptidae is nearly worldwide, although family is extinct in Europe since Pleistocene, except one species in Northern Caucasus. In fossil record from Paleocene.

Taxonomy

edit

For some time was considered as a subfamily in Vertiginidae, some species of these two families are very similar by the shell's characters.

Genera in the family Gastrocoptidae include:

Subfamily Gastrocoptinae Pilsbry, 1918

Subfamily Hypselostomatinae Zilch, 1959 - distributed mainly in Southeastern Asia and Australia
