Gastropoda - Neritidae

Taxonomy

Neritina was named by Lamarck (1816) [Sepkoski's age data: J Bajo R Sepkoski's reference number: 558]. It is extant. Its type is Nerita pulligera.

It was reranked as Nerita (Neritina) by Martin (1905); it was misspelled as Neretina by Vaughn (1921), Woodring (1957), Ladd (1966), Perrilliat (1972), Woodring (1973), Ladd (1982), Wilson (1993), Todd (2001), Harzhauser and Mandic (2001), Squires and Saul (2002), Sepkoski (2002), Bouchet et al. (2005), Landau et al. (2016).

It was assigned to Nerita by Martin (1905); to Neritidae by Vaughn (1921), Ladd (1966), Ladd (1982), Todd (2001), Harzhauser and Mandic (2001); to Neritinae by Woodring (1957), Perrilliat (1972), Woodring (1973), Wilson (1993), Squires and Saul (2002); to Archaeogastropoda by Sepkoski (2002); and to Neritininae by Bouchet et al. (2005), Landau et al. (2016).
