Remark Acteon is placed in family Acteonidae by Sheppard (1984) and Harasewych (1997), which is synonym with Pupidae according to Spry (1961). Sometimes spelled Actaeon (and the family Actaeonidae) [details]
Spelling The original spelling of this genus is certainly Acteon and not Actaeon, as mentioned by e.g. Odhner, 1907; Jaeckel, 1952; Gilbert, 1960; Janssen, 1975; Seaward, 1982. [details]
