Dear James,
Cate (1977) treated 41 species level taxa in the Eratoidae, including all
of your sample below. He employed 4 genera and 3 non-nominotypical
subgenera. To my knowledge, this monograph remains the benchmark work on
the group.
Ref: Cate, C. N., 1977. A review of the Eratoidae (Mollusca: Gastropoda).
Veliger 19(3): 341-366. Jan. 1.
