“…Extant Cyclophoridae have non-calcareous opercula, which are not preserved as fossils. So far, 14 species of Cyclophoridae are known from the Cenozoic sedimentary record of Europe (Wenz 1923;Steklov 1966;Schütt 1991Schütt , 1997Stworzewicz 1995). The oldest records derive from the upper Paleocene (Thanetian) of France.…”

Ferussina Grateloup, 1827 is a European Paleogene land snail genus, which is currently classified in its own family, the Ferussinidae Wenz, 1923 (1915), in the superfamily Cyclophoroidea. The shell of this genus is remarkable by its last quarter whorl turning towards the apex instead of away from it, which is an unusual trait in terrestrial snails. We show, however, that this trait has evolved at least nine times in terrestrial Eupulmonata and Caenogastropoda, and it does not justify distinction at the family level in any of the reported cases. This observation suggests the systematic position of Ferussina should not be based on the apexward-turning last quarter whorl alone but instead on the general morphology of the shell. As a result, we re-evaluate the systematic position of the Ferussinidae and treat it as a subfamily of the Cyclophoridae.

“…The Horasan Beds yielded fossil mollusc shells described as Dreissena diluvii, Caspicyclotus armenicus, Pyrgula quimplex, Radix lessonae, and Gyraulus horasanensis (Schütt, 1991). The Pasinler Beds, which have been sampled for the present study, are up to 300 m thick; they are exposed at several isolated spots along the northern basin margin (Irrlitz, 1972;pl.…”

“…It is more difficult to locate a precise time frame and the area of this introduction. Reliable paleontological records from southern Turkey (Schçtt 1989(Schçtt , 1990) and the Azov-Black Sea Basin show that most likely it was the time of Chaudian or Ancient-Euxinian Age (Fig. 2) here and there identical or extremely similar gastropod species oc-curred (see above).…”

A recent phylogenetic study based on mitochondrial DNA data suggested that the hydrobiid genus Falsipyrgula from SW Anatolia and Euxinipyrgula from the Azov‐Black Sea Basin are closely related. Here, new data on the protoconch morphology are provided and radular and anatomical data of this group of hydrobiid gastropods from the Azov‐Black Sea Basin are reviewed. It is also shown that the supposed close relationship between the two aforesaid genera is reflected in an involved combination of similarity and dissimilarity of their representatives. The most prominent teleoconch dissimilarity of Falsipyrgula and Euxinipyrgula is a keel in former and absence of a keel in latter. Homology and origin of the keel in Falsipyrgula from the shoulder of Euxinipyrgula is hypothesized and discussed in detail. Protoconch morphology and characters of the reproductive systems of both sexes suggest that Falsipyrgula is more similar to Euxinipyrgula from the Azov‐Black Sea Basin than to any other known hydrobiid from the Balkan (e.g., Pyrgula and Dianella). Paleontological data and the region's paleogeography suggest that the evolution of the genus Falsipyrgula is historically connected to the Black Sea Basin rather than to the Balkan's ancient lakes Ohrid or Prespa. The Anatolian genus Falsipyrgula and the Azov‐Black Sea Basin's genera Turricaspia and Euxinipyrgula are attributed to the subfamily Turricaspiinae B. Dybowski & Grochmalicki, 1915.
