Taxonomy
The taxonomy of the Gastropoda by Bouchet & Rocroi, 2005[2] categorizes Lesueurillidae in the superfamilia Euomphaloidea within the Paleozoic molluscs with anisostrophically coiled shells of uncertain position (Gastropoda?). This family has no subfamilies.

Description
Fossils of family Lesueurillidae has sharp peripheral band and a short notch formed from deep V-shaped sinus.[1] They are similar to Maclurites but they differ in early ontogenesis from them.[1]
gollark: My base is traversable only through accidental floor holes and the staff of traveling.
gollark: My machinery is just randomly shoved into convenient places in the basement or subbasement or subsubbasement.
gollark: On the chaos guardian.
gollark: The pendulum, soul vial, golden/cursed lasso, and mob imprisonment tool just don't do anything.
gollark: I'll try it now.
