Macrogastra is a genus of air-breathing land snails, terrestrial pulmonate gastropod mollusks in the subfamily Clausiliinae of the family Clausiliidae, the door snails.MolluscaBase eds. (2020). MolluscaBase. Macrogastra W. Hartmann, 1841. Accessed through: World Register of Marine Species at: http://www.marinespecies.org/aphia.php?p=taxdetails&id=996088 on 2020-08-25
Like all clausiliids, the shells of the species in this genus are sinistral, or left-handed in their coiling.
