Gastrocoptidae is a family of minute, air-breathing land snails, terrestrial pulmonate gastropod molluscs in the superfamily Pupilloidea.[1][2]

Distribution

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

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:

† Ptychalaea Boettger, 1889

Subfamily Gastrocoptinae Pilsbry, 1918

Gastrocopta Wollaston, 1878 - the type genus of the family, distributed nearly worldwide, over 100 species, in fossil record from Paleocene, very numerous and speciose in the Miocene deposits of Europe
Balticopta Balashov & Perkovsky, 2020 - fossil from Eocene Baltic amber[3]
Cavipupa Pilsbry, 1934 - endemic to Philippines
