Pseudiberus is a genus of air-breathing land snails, terrestrial pulmonate gastropod mollusks in the family Bradybaenidae.[4]
Taxonomy
Two subgenera Pseudiberus and Platypetasus were synonymized in the study published in 2006 by Min Wu and Gang Qi, because their genital characters and their distribution range largely overlap.[3]
Distribution
These terrestrial snails inhabit Eastern Asia.
