Gastropoda - Neogastropoda - Columbellidae

Taxonomy
Anachis was named by Adams and Adams (1853) [Sepkoski's age data: T Mi-l R Sepkoski's reference number: 550,553]. It is extant.

It was reranked as Columbella (Anachis) by Hörnes and Auinger (1880).

It was assigned to Columbella by Hörnes and Auinger (1880); to Pyrenidae by Gardner (1948) and Marks (1951); to Columbellidae by MacNeil (1960), Woodring (1964), Addicott (1970), Ladd (1977), Ladd (1982), Ward and Blackwelder (1987), Todd (2001), Wienrich (2001) and Harzhauser (2002); to Neogastropoda by Sepkoski (2002); and to Pyreninae by Wilson (1994) and Monsecour and Monsecour (2005).
