Panpulmonata
Panpulmonata is a taxonomic clade of snails and slugs in the clade Heterobranchia within the clade Euthyneura. Panpulmonata was established as a new taxon by Jörger et al. in October 2010. The older name "Pulmonata" referred to a group of euthyneuran gastropods which were considered to be "air-breathers". In contrast, "Opisthobranchia, Opistobranchia" grouped various, mostly marine euthyneuran lineages, often with reduced shell. Phylogenetic analyses have shown that none of these two groups was monophyletic. The former "Pulmonata" should also include several groups that lack an air-filled lung (Acochlidiacea, Sacoglossa and Pyramidelloidea). The name "Pulmonata" also inaccurate when applied to some of the more traditional pulmonate taxa such as Siphonarioidea or Hygrophila (Gastropoda), Hygrophila, most members of which lack permanently air-filled lungs as well. To emphasize the complete change in taxonomic concepts following from the molecular phylogenetic analyses but keep som ...

Pneumopulmonata
Pneumopulmonata is a superorder of Heterobranchia, heterobranch Panpulmonata, pulmonate Gastropoda, gastropods belonging to the subterclass Tectipleura. It was defined based on results of Phylogenomics, phylogenomic studies and named by Krug et al. (2022). The superorder unites all of Panpulmonata except for Sacoglossa. Description Synapomorphy of the group is the presence of a pneumostome. It as established for the taxa comprising all descendants of the last common ancestor shared by Siphonarioidea, Amphiboloidea and Stylommatophora. MolluscaBase eds. (2024). MolluscaBase. Pneumopulmonata. Accessed through: World Register of Marine Species at: https://www.marinespecies.org/aphia.php?p=taxdetails&id=1586068 on 2024-10-26 It mainly contains clades occurring at the interface between sea and land, in freshwater, and in terrestrial habitats. The following groups are included: * Siphonarioidea * Acochlidiacea * Pylopulmonata ** Amphiboloidea ** Pyramidelloidea ** Glacidorboidea * H ...
