I'd agree with Bob's suggested order, but you are really dealing with a bush, with families coming out in all directions, rather than a straight line of all the families. There are published lists but I do not have the latest--probably others will help you.

Dear Vicky:
"Proper taxonomic order" depends on which expert you believe. Without trying to defend (and probably starting a firestorm), I would put them in the following phylogenetic order:
ZebinidaeVermetidaeAplysiidaeEllobiidae
Let the games begin.

Hello,I am trying to get an exhibit together with the proper taxonomic order of Gastropod families. I would appreciate any help with the following families....if you know where they belong, it would be helpful to me if you could give one or two families in front of and after. Here they are:Zebinidae, Ellobiidae, Aplysiidae, and Vermetidae.Thank you very much,Vicky WallMayodan, [log in to unmask] - a forum for informal discussions on molluscsTo leave this list, click on the following web link:http://listserv.uga.edu/scripts/wa-UGA.exe?SUBED1=conch-l-L&A=1Type your email address and name in the appropriate box andclick leave the list.---------------------------------------------------------------------- [log in to unmask] - a forum for informal discussions on molluscsTo leave this list, click on the following web link:http://listserv.uga.edu/scripts/wa-UGA.exe?SUBED1=conch-l-L&A=1Type your email address and name in the appropriate box andclick leave the list.----------------------------------------------------------------------
