Bothriembryon is a genus of tropical air-breathing land snails, terrestrial pulmonate gastropod mollusks in the family Bothriembryontidae.^[4]

B. J. Smith (1992)^[5] made the last review of the genus summarizing all known data.^[6]

Distribution[]

The land snail genus Bothriembryon is endemic to Australia but forms part of the Gondwanan element in the superfamily Orthalicoidea.^[6] Bothriembryon species are mostly patchy in their distribution.^[6]

Taxonomy[]

This genus was classified with the Bulimulidae by Pilsbry (1900),^[7] Breure (1979)^[8] and by B. J. Smith (1992).^[5]^[6]

It was classified in tribe Bulimulini, in subfamily Bulimulinae within the family Orthalicidae according to the taxonomy of the Gastropoda by Bouchet & Rocroi, 2005.^[9]

Breure et al. (2010)^[10] moved Bothriembryon to Placostylidae.^[10]

Breure & Romero (2012)^[4] confirmed previous results from 2010 and they renamed Placostylidae to Bothriembryontidae.^[4]
