From editor or global species database
Classification Based on molecular phylogenetic analysis and morphological characterisation, Nozeba and Auricorona n. gen. do not belong in Iravadiidae s. str. However, these two genera are quite dissimilar to each other and also do not obviously belong in any other truncatelloid family. Ponder (1984) recognised a division within Iravadiidae s. l. between Iravadia and the other extant iravadiid genera with paucispiral opercula (Nozeba, Rissopsis, Chevallieria, Acliceratia, Hyala, Ceratia and Liroceratia) (see Iravadiidae, Remarks). Nozeba, and perhaps some or all of these other genera with a paucispiral operculum, belong in ‘Clade A’. Although currently consisting of only two genera, it is anticipated that ‘Clade A’ will eventually omprise a large portion of the diversity previously assigned to Iravadiidae.
