'''Pomatiopsidae''' is a family of small, mainly freshwater snails, (some also occur in other habitats) that have gills and an operculum, aquatic gastropod mollusks in the superfamily Truncatelloidea (according to the taxonomy of the Gastropoda by Bouchet & Rocroi, 2005).

Pomatiopsidae are well known as intermediate hosts of Asian schistosomes.<ref name="Kameda 2011"/>

== Distribution == Species in the family Pomatiopsidae occur worldwide.<ref name="Kameda 2011"/> The generic diversity of Pomatiopsinae is particularly high in the Japanese Archipelago, where four of the eight genera, including two endemics, are recorded.<ref name="Kameda 2011"/> The subfamily Triculinae radiated as aquatic snails in freshwater habitats in Southeast Asia.<ref name="Kameda 2011"/> [[File:Pomatiopsidae map.svg|left|thumb|upright=3.0|Approximate distribution map of Pomatiopsidae.<br/> Notes: Distribution of ''Tomichia'' includes also Central Africa,<ref name="Brown 1994">Brown D.

==Description== The American malacologist William Stimpson first defined this taxon as Pomatiopsinae in 1865.<ref name="Stimpson 1865">Stimpson W. (1865).
