Tanganyicia is a genus of tropical freshwater snails with an operculum, aquatic gastropod mollusks in the family Paludomidae.[4]
Before 2002 this genus was placed within the family Thiaridae.
Species
Brown (1994)[5] considered Tanganyicia rufofilosa a very variable species and the only species within the genus Tanganyicia.[5] Later, in 1999, another species was described.
Species within the genus Tanganyicia include:
- Tanganyicia michelae (West, 1999)[6]
- Tanganyicia rufofilosa (Smith, 1880) - type species[5]
