*) ,Dr. Gray has raised this sub-family to the rank of a family to 
receive the genera Otina, Chilina, Camptonyx and possibly Monvillia, which 
differ from Auriculidae in having flattened tentacles, and from Limnaeidae 
in having the eyes on the upper part of the base of the tentacles, instead 
of at the inner edge of the base, and in having coloured shells.*
