Crepidula
''Crepidula'', commonly known as the slipper snails, slipper limpets, or slipper shells, is a genus of sea snails, marine (ocean), marine gastropod mollusks in the family Calyptraeidae. This family includes the slipper snails (''Crepidula''), hat snails (''Calyptraea''), spiny slipper snails (''Bostrycapulus''), and cup-and-saucer snails (''Crucibulum (gastropod), Crucibulum'') as well as ''Crepipatella'', ''Siphopatella'', ''Grandicrepidula'', and ''Maoricrypta''.Bouchet, P.; Gofas, S. (2011). Crepidula Lamarck, 1799. Accessed through: World Register of Marine Species at http://www.marinespecies.org/aphia.php?p=taxdetails&id=137722 on 2011-05-21 These recent changes in the definition of ''Crepidula'' are based on both DNA sequence data as well as anatomical work. Dissections of various calyptraeids show that species that are now placed in ''Grandicrepidula'' and ''Maoricrypta'' are anatomically very different from the true ''Crepidula''.

Crepidula Fornicata
''Crepidula fornicata'' is a species of medium-sized sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusc in the family Calyptraeidae, the slipper snails and cup and saucer snails. It has many common names, including common slipper shell, common Atlantic slippersnail, boat shell, quarterdeck shell, fornicating slipper snail, Atlantic slipper limpet and it is in Britain as the "common slipper limpet". Description The size of the shell is 20–50 mm. The maximum recorded shell length is 56 mm.Welch J. J. (2010). "The "Island Rule" and Deep-Sea Gastropods: Re-Examining the Evidence". '' PLoS ONE'' 5(1): e8776. . This sea snail has an arched, rounded shell. On the inside of the shell there is a white "deck", which causes the shell to resemble a boat or a slipper, hence the common names. There is variability in the shape of the shell: some shells are more arched than others. Groups of individuals are often found heaped up and fastened together, with the larger, older females b ...

Crepidula Atrasolea
''Crepidula atrasolea'' is a species of small sea snail, a slipper snail, a marine gastropod mollusk in the family Calyptraeidae, the slipper snails or slipper limpets, cup-and-saucer snails, and hat snails. This species is similar to '' Crepidula plana'' and '' Crepidula depressa'', but it can be distinguished from them on the basis of the dark pigment on the foot, and direct-developing embryos. DNA sequence data shows that these three species are closely related within the genus ''Crepidula'', but are not closely related to other flat white species of ''Crepidula'', which occur throughout the phylogeny of the genus. A video showing the differences between the species is availablCollinLab videos Distribution This species occurs in the Western Atlantic Ocean. This species occurs in Florida, South Carolina, North Carolina. Flat white ''Crepidula'' occurring north of this range are almost certainly '' Crepidula plana''. Old records often confuse '' Crepidula plana'', ''Crepidu ...

Crepidula Adunca
''Crepidula adunca'', common name the "hooked slippersnail" is a species of sea snail or "slipper snail", a marine gastropod mollusk Mollusca is the second-largest phylum of invertebrate animals after the Arthropoda, the members of which are known as molluscs or mollusks (). Around 85,000  extant species of molluscs are recognized. The number of fossil species is e ... in the family Calyptraeidae, the slipper snails and cup-and-saucer snails. Distribution This species occurs in the Eastern Pacific Ocean, from Canada to Baja California, Mexico. Crepidula is usually found in semi-permanent stacks of 2 ''Crepidula adunca'' individuals (usually more females than males). They do not reproduce well in the mid-intertidal zone, (20-30 meters). They live in epizootic associations, where the adults are inactive and the ''C. adunca''’s shell grows to fit the shape of its host's shell. Mobile juveniles must choose long-term hosts, other animals, that minimize their chances ...
