Taxonomy: For all marine species, Project Gastropods uses the taxonomy in the online database WoRMS. When starting a new article, do not use sources of taxonomic information that predate the 2017 revision for all gastropod groups ("Revised Classification, Nomenclator and Typification of Gastropod and Monoplacophoran Families" by Philippe Bouchet & Jean-Pierre Rocroi, Bernhard Hausdorf, Andrzej Kaim, Yasunori Kano, Alexander Nützel, Pavel Parkhaev, Michael Schrödl and Ellen E. Strong in Malacologia, 2017, 61(1–2): 1–526.) (can be dowloaded at Researchgate.net), substituting the previous classification of 2005 Taxonomy of the Gastropoda (Bouchet & Rocroi, 2005). If you need help with any aspect of an article, please leave a note at the Project talk page.

Hello L. alte contributors, I noticed that in the past few months there have been IP addresses adding the common name "glubby" to this page. I can't find any source that links "Laevicaulis alte" or "tropical leatherleaf" with "glubby" (besides some social media sites) and I think it may have just originated as a meme. Regardless, if any editor is able to find reliable evidence that glubby is a common name, maybe there should be a new reference cited; as @Ineffablebookkeeper found, none of the current references cite this name, and none of the various IPs have pointed to sources in their edits.
