Strombidae, commonly known as the true conchs, is a taxonomic family of medium-sized to very large sea snails in the superfamily Stromboidea, and the Epifamily Neostromboidae. The term true conchs, being a common name, does not have an exact meaning. It may generally refer to any of the Strombidae[2] but sometimes is used more specifically to include only Strombus and Lambis.[3] The family currently includes 26 extant, and 10 extinct genera.
