TAXONOMY — There is a tendency in current literature to disregard subspecies, and cite only species names, which automatically take on the name of the typical subspecies.It is presumptive of later workers to assume which subspecies was intended.Such is the case with the work by Pérez & López (2002).However, I am not aware of any authentic identifications of Cecilioides consobrinus consobrinus in the study area.

Family SUBULINIDAE Fischer & Crosse, 1877
DISTRIBUTION — Tropical America east through Africa and southeast Asia.
TAXONOMY — Numerous genera.
Subfamily SUBULININAE Fischer & Crosse, 1877
Most Middle American Subulinidae had been grouped in the genus Leptinaria. A species critical to this classification was Allopeas gracilis (Hutton, 1834), which was placed variously within Opeas and then Lamellaxis, which in turn was considered a subgenus of Leptinaria. H. B. Baker (1927, 1935, 1945) pointed out the anatomical differences between Opeas, Beckianum, Allopeas, Leptopeas, Lamellaxis and Leptinaria. The anatomies of only a few species among these genera were known. Authors continued to unite most of the Middle American species within Leptinaria because of the lack of discrete shell differences between it and Lamellaxis, Leptopeas and Allopeas. This classification recognizes Opeas, Allopeas, Leptopeas, Lamellaxis, Beckianum, as separate genera because of their known anatomies.

Allopeas H. B. Baker, 1935; Nautilus, 48: 84 — H. B. Baker, 1945; Nautilus, 58: 88 (anatomy).
TYPE SPECIES — Bulimus gracilis Hutton, 1834.
DISTRIBUTION — Tropical, subtropical and many temperate regions of the paleotropical regions of the world.Allopeas gracilis and a few closely related species are readily dispersed elsewhere through human activities. TAXONOMY — Several species.Conventionally, Allopeas had been treated as a subgenus of Lamellaxis. More recently it is recognized as a separate genus because of its anatomical dissimilarity with Lamellaxis and other genera.

DISTRIBUTION — This is a tropical American genus which is distributed from Mexico south to Bolivia. TAXONOMY — Twent — one species and five subspecies occur in the study area.Other species occur in South America.The arrangement of species given below follows Von Martens (1898) and Pilsbry (1907).Formerly most of the species were placed in Leptinaria, subgenus Lamellaxis. Data provided by H. B. Baker (1927c. 1945) necessitate the recognition of Lamellaxis as a separate genus. These no — lamellate Mexican and Central American species form a cohesive group of similar appearing species. Lamellaxis lacks a parietal lamella, and the outer lateral teeth of the radula are tr — cuspid, wher — as Leptinaria has a parietal lamella at some stage of development, and the outer laterals are b — cuspid.

Subgenus Singleya H. B. Baker, 1941
Singleya H. B. Baker, 1941: 54. TYPE SPECIES — By original designation: Glandina singleyana W. G. Binney, 1878).
DISTRIBUTION — Southern Texas south to Panama. TAXONOMY — Twent — one species and four subspecies are recognized.Cosmomenus, which is treated as a separate subgenus, was described at a section of Singleya on the basis of the origin of the penis retractor muscle. In Singleya the penis retractor originates on the inner wall of the lung. In Cosmomenus the penis retractor originates on the left side of the columellar retractor muscle. The assignment of species to either subgenus on the basis of shell characters is arbitrary. Most of the following species are known only on the basis of the shell. They are place in Singleya because it is the senior name.

Baker, 1941; Nautilus, 55: 53 — Thompson, 1967; Bull. Fla. St. Mus., 11: 23 — 234. TYPE SPECIES — By tautonymy, Achatina streptostyla Pfeiffer, 1846. DISTRIBUTION.—Mexico, Central America, and Cuba.A single species is reported from Venezuela. TAXONOMY.—Fift — five species and fourteen subspecies are recognized in Mexico and Central America.Four subgenera, Streptostyla, Chersomitra, Peténiella and Eustreptostyla, occur in the study area. Another subgenus, Rectoleacina, occurs in Cuba. The distinctions between the subgenera Streptostyla and Chersomitra are anatomical primarily. The numerous species that remain unknown anatomically are retained in the subgenus Streptostyla, with the exceptions of those placed in Eustreptostyla and Peténiella. Species for which the anatomy is known are preceded with an asterisk (*). Within Streptostyla species are grouped according to shell shape as a matter of convenience only following von Von Martens (1892) and Pilsbry (1897). The arrangement does not reflect phylogenetic relationships, which is not possible to achieve without further anatomical or genetic information.

Subfamily SPIRAXINAE H. B. Baker, 1939
Spiraxinae H. B. Baker, 1939; Nautilus, 53: 9. TYPE GENUS — Spiraxis C. B. Adams, 1850.
DISTRIBUTION — Spiraxis is confined to the West Indies. The subgenera Spiraxis s. s., Repressaxis H. B. Baker, 1939, Dignaxis H. B. Baker, 1939 and Euspiraxis Pfeiffer, 1854 are known from Jamaica and Hispaniola. The subgenus Ravenia Crosse, 1873 is confined to Los Roques. All mainland species are referred to different genera. TAXONOMY — Five genera and sevent — five species of Spiraxinae are recognized in the study area. Traditionally Spiraxis has been used as an al — inclusive genus for species of the Spiraxinae because of the difficulty of assigning species to different genera on the basis of shell morphology. H. B. Baker (1939b) discusses the anatomy of the subfamily. He emphasizes that subgenera and sections he recognized should more properly be ranked as genera and subgenera on the basis of anatomical differentiation. This ranking was followed by Zilch (1960) and is adapted here. The large number of species assigned to Volutaxis and Pseudosubulina remains arbitrary in many cases because of the lack of anatomical information.
