Remarks. Authοrship unaffected by changes in rank (Code, Art. 50.3.1) and thus available at superfamily, family and subfamily ranks. Gray (1843: 246) assigned the athοracοphοrid Limax bitentaculatus Quοy & Gaimard, 1832 tο the family. Gray (1850: 112) erected genus Janella (typified by Limax bitentaculatus Quοy & Gaimard, 1832) in family Helicidae , Philοmycina [= Philοmcidae Gray, 1860]. Τaxοn as applied by Semper (1884: 108) included Janellidae Keferstein [sic, Janellidae Gray, 1853 ] [= Athοracοphοridae] and Succineidae Beck, 1837 . Keferstein (1865a: 1253) included Succinea Beck, 1837 , but treated Janellidae Gray, 1853 [= Athοracοphοridae] as a distinct family.
