The Architecture of the Physid Musculature ofPhysa acutaDraparnaud, 1805 (Gastropoda: Physidae) [PDF]
African Invertebrates, 2009 ABSTRACT The basommatophoran family Physidae possesses a remarkable but little known set of muscles called the “physid musculature”. Using Physa acuta as a model, this musculature was shown to be anatomically complex and associated in places with the columellar muscle.

A Molecular Phylogeny of Physidae (Gastropoda: Basommatophora) Based on Mitochondrial DNA Sequences [PDF]
Journal of Molluscan Studies, 2007 The family Physidae (Pulmonata: Basommatophora) is a group of freshwater hermaphroditic snails that have a Holarctic distribution with extension into Central and South America. Despite considerable literature justifying various taxonomic schemes and groupings, no classification has been proposed using modern phylogenetic methods. In an effort to expand
