PEDICULARIIDAE
GRAY, 1853
Remarks—
Lorenz and Fehse (2009)
noted that the morphology of the marginal radular teeth of Pedicu- lariidae differ distinctly from those of the
Ovulidae
, but that the zoological position of the
Pediculariidae
is not completely settled. They also noted that “the first results from DNA research seem to confirm its separation from the
Cypraeidae
and
Ovulidae
.” The authors agree with this arrangement.
