See text Epiphragmophorinae is a subfamily of air-breathing land snails, terrestrial pulmonate gastropod mollusks in the family Xanthonychidae (according to the taxonomy of the Gastropoda by Bouchet & Rocroi, 2005).

[2] Shileyko (2004) listed 40 species within Epiphragmophorinae.

[4] This family is defined by the absence of a diverticulum.

These snails have one dart apparatus with a stylophore (dart sac), and one or two mucous glands that are inserted on the dart sac and on the accessory sac, or at the base of the dart sac.
