Pneumodermatidae
The Pneumodermatidae are a family of sea angels, or small floating predatory sea snails or sea slugs. They are pelagic marine heterobranch opisthobranch gastropod mollusks in the clade Gymnosomata. These small pelagic snails lack shells (except in their early embryonic stage). They are carnivores, equipped with swimming parapoda (fleshy, wing-like outgrowths), strong jaws, and grasping tentacles, often with suckers resembling those of cephalopods. Genera Genera within the family Pneumodermatidae include: Genus: ''Pneumoderma'' de Roissy, 1805 * ''Pneumoderma atlanticum'' Oken, 1815 * ''Pneumoderma degraaffi'' van der Spoel & Pafort-van Iersel, 1982 – distribution: Sargasso Sea, length: 11.8 mm * ''Pneumoderma mediterraneum'' van Beneden, 1838 – distribution: Florida, Brazil, Mediterranean, length: 20 mm * ''Pneumoderma peronii'' Lamarck, 1819 – distribution: Red Sea * ''Pneumoderma violaceum'' d'Orbigny, 1836 – distribution: Bermuda, oceanic, length: 25 ...

Gymnosomata
Sea angels ( clade Gymnosomata) are a large group of small free-swimming sea slugs, not to be confused with Cnidarians (Jellyfish and other similar creatures), classified into six different families. They are pelagic opisthobranchs in the clade Gymnosomata within the larger mollusc clade Heterobranchia. Sea angels were previously referred to as a type of pteropod. Sea angels are also sometimes known as "cliones" but this is potentially misleading because the family Clionidae is just one of the families within this clade. Recent molecular data suggest the Gymnosomata form a sister group to the Thecosomata (other planktonic, weakly or nonmineralized gastropods), but this long-standing hypothesis has also had some recent detractors. Fossils of the group go back to the Middle Frasnian stage of the Late Devonian period. Distribution These organisms have a wide geographic range, from polar regions, under sea ice, to equatorial (tropic) seas. Description In this clade, the foo ...
