Nacellidae
Nacellidae is a taxonomic family of sea snails or true limpets, marine gastropod molluscs in the subclass Patellogastropoda. Taxonomy Nacellidae was the only family in the superfamily Nacelloidea as described by Bouchet & Rocroi (2005),. However a molecular phylogenetic study of Patellogastropoda by Nakano & Ozawa (2007) found that Nacellidae was recovered within Lottioidea, as shown in the following cladogram:Nakano T. & Ozawa T. (2007). "Worldwide phylogeography of limpets of the order Patellogastropoda: Molecular, morphological and palaeontological evidence". ''Journal of Molluscan Studies'' 73(1) 79-99. . As a result Nacellidae was moved to Lottioidea in the taxonomic revision of Bouchet et al (2017). More recently, a recent phylogenomic study found Nacellidae as a sister to Patellidae, which suggests that Nacellidae should be transferred to Patelloidea. Genera Genera within the family Nacellidae include: * ''Cellana'' H. Adams, 1869 * '' Naccula'' Iredale, 1 ...

Cellana
''Cellana'' is a genus of sea snails or limpets, marine gastropod molluscs in the family Nacellidae, the true limpets.WoRMS (2010). Cellana H. Adams, 1869. In: Bouchet, P.; Gofas, S.; Rosenberg, G. (2010) World Marine Mollusca database. Accessed through: World Register of Marine Species at http://www.marinespecies.org/aphia.php?p=taxdetails&id=205749 on 2010-10-31 Distribution This genus occurs in the temperate and tropical Indo-Pacific oceans, Hawaii (where they are known as ''‘opihi'' and considered a delicacy) and around Australia and New Zealand. Species are also found around the coasts of Japan, the Red Sea, Mauritius, Madagascar, South Africa and the sub-Antartarctic Islands. One species, ''Cellana radiata'', is cosmopolitan. These sea snails feed by grazing on green macroalgae growing on rocky substrate in the intertidal zone. Some of these limpets can live up to 7 years, however most do not get older than 2–3 years. They reproduce by broadcasting their spawn ...

Patellogastropoda
The Patellogastropoda, common name true limpets and historically called the Docoglossa, are members of a major phylogenetic group of marine gastropods, treated by experts either as a clade or as a taxonomic order. The clade Patellogastropoda is deemed monophyletic based on phylogenetic analysis. Taxonomy Patellogastropoda was proposed by David R. Lindberg, 1986, as an order, and was later included in the subclass Eogastropoda Ponder & Lindberg, 1996. 2005 taxonomy Bouchet & Rocroi, 2005 designated Patellogastropoda, true limpets, as a clade, rather than as a taxon, but within included superfamilies and families as listed below.

Limpet
Limpets are a group of aquatic snails that exhibit a conical gastropod shell, shell shape (patelliform) and a strong, muscular foot. Limpets are members of the class Gastropoda, but are polyphyletic, meaning the various groups called "limpets" descended independently from different ancestral gastropods. This general category of conical shell is known as "patelliform" (dish-shaped). All members of the large and ancient marine clade Patellogastropoda are limpets. Within that clade, the members of the Patellidae family in particular are often referred to as "true limpets". Other groups, not in the same family, are also called limpets of one type or another, due to the similarity of their shells' shape. Examples include the Fissurellidae ("keyhole limpet") family, which is part of the Vetigastropoda clade (many other members of the Vetigastropoda do not have the Morphology (biology), morphology of limpets) and the Siphonariidae ("false limpets"), which use a siphon to pump water o ...
