basis of record Neiber, M. T., Walther, F. & Hausdorf, B. (2020). Phylogenetic relationships of ghost slugs (Selenochlamys) and overlooked instances of limacization in Western Palaearctic Limacoidei (Gastropoda: Stylommatophora). <em>Molecular Phylogenetics and Evolution.</em> 151: 106897., available online at https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S105579032030169X?via%3Dihub
note: The phylogeny of Neiber et al. revealed that Limacoidea as well as Parmacelloidea in the sense of Hausdorf (1998) are polyphyletic, and Milacidae is not a close relative of Parmacellidae. [details] Available for editors  PDF available [request]
