== Distribution == The distribution of the Vitrinidae includes the Nearctic, western Palearctic, eastern Palearctic, and Ethiopian zones, as well as Hawaii.<ref name="Hausdorf 2000"/>

==Anatomy== Snails in this family make and use love darts made of chitin.

In this family, the number of haploid chromosomes lies between 26 and 35 (according to the values in this table).<ref name="Barker">Barker G.
