Streptaxidae is a family of air-breathing land snails, terrestrial pulmonate gastropod mollusks in the Stylommatophora. Six Streptaxidae subfamilies are accepted in the 2005 taxonomy of the Gastropoda by Bouchet & Rocroi.

Streptaxidae are a carnivorous family except one species Edentulina moreleti, that is herbivorous.^[3] All streptaxids have well-developed radula, except Careoradula perelegans, which is the only known terrestrial gastropod without radula.^[4]

Altogether 66 species from the family Streptaxidae have been listed in the 2010 IUCN Red List.^[5]

Distribution [link]

The historical area of origin of Streptaxidae is probably Gondwanaland.^[6]

The Recent native distribution of Streptaxidae include South America, Africa, Arabia, Madagascar, Seychelles, Mayotte, Comores, Mauritius, Réunion, Rodrigues, India, Sri Lanka, Andamans, South-East Asia and Philippines.^[1] The genus Gibbulinella is found in the Canary Islands.^[1]

Taxonomy [link]

2005 taxonomy [link]

Only one family Streptaxidae has been recognized within Streptaxida Streptaxoidea in the taxonomy of Bouchet & Rocroi (2005).^[7]

There are 6 subfamilies in the family Streptaxidae (according to the taxonomy of the Gastropoda by Bouchet & Rocroi, 2005):

Streptaxinae Gray, 1860 - synonym: Artemonidae Bourguignat, 1889
Enneinae Bourguignat, 1883^[8] - synonym: Streptostelidae Bourguignat, 1889
Marconiinae Schileyko, 2000^[9]
Odontartemoninae Schileyko, 2000^[10]
Orthogibbinae Germain, 1921^[11] - synonyms: Gibbinae Steenberg, 1936; Gonidominae Steenberg, 1936
Ptychotrematinae Pilsbry, 1919^[12]

2010 taxonomy [link]

Sutcharit et al. (2010)^[1] have established a new family Diapheridae within Streptaxoidea and they have added two genera Diaphera and Sinoennea into Diapheridae.^[1]
