Enneinae is a subfamily of land snails in the family Streptaxidae.[1]
Description
[edit]The animals of the Aenneidae resemble those of the Testacellidae or Streptaxidae due to the lack of a jaw. However, their shells bear no resemblance to those of these families.
Their shells are much closer to those of Bulimes and Pupas than to Testacellas or Streptaxis.[2]
