"Considering the external morphology, this specimen belongs to the genus Palliohedyle (the visceral sac of the genus Acochlidium is not undulated but smooth). In literature, there is only one species described, P. weberi. Very nice finding, congratulations!" The taxonomy of the order Acochlidiacea Odhner, 1937 is still 'under construction', I follow Jörger et al. (2010) and place it in the superorder Panpulmonata.
