Taxonomic remark Truncatellina is commonly classified within the Vertiginidae. However, as recently shown by Nekola & Coles (2016), the genus is not that closely related to the Vertiginidae, but may rather be affiliated with the Chondrinidae or form a pupilloid family of its own. A systematic revision is pending. [details]
