Taxonomic Remark: For a long time, strombids have been classified in just two genera, Strombus and Lambis. However, the family Strombidae has a very long fossil record, and there is evidence from molecular phylogenies (Latiolais et al. 2006) and the fossil record (e.g., Bandel 2007) that the subdivision of Strombus into discrete genera is justified. WoRMS thus follows here a modern approach to strombid taxonomy that contrasts with many traditional treatments in collectors guides and websites.
