Taxonomy of the Gastropoda (Bouchet et al., 2017) explained

The taxonomy of the Gastropoda as it was revised in December 2017 by Philippe Bouchet and eight other authors, is a publication which lays out a newly revised system for the scientific classification of gastropod mollusks.[1] The same work also included the taxonomy of monoplacophorans.

The publication is entitled, "Revised Classification, Nomenclator and Typification of Gastropod and Monoplacophoran Families"; it was published by the journal Malacologia.
