Neomphaloidea is a superfamily of deep-sea snails or limpets, marine gastropod mollusks. Neomphaloidea is the only superfamily in the clade Neomphalina.
The clade Neomphalina has the largest in situ radiation in hydrothermal vent habitats. Neomphalina is a major taxonomic grouping of sea snails, vent-endemic marine gastropod mollusks that form a very ancient lineage, going back to the Palaeozoic era.
2005 taxonomy
The superfamily Neomphaloidea was regarded for a long time as belonging within the clade Vetigastropoda. Superfamily Neomphaloidea was also classified in the clade Vetigastropoda according to the taxonomy of the Gastropoda by Bouchet & Rocroi, 2005.[3]
2010 taxonomy
Molecular phylogeny showed however that it belongs in its own clade, the Neomphalina, and that this clade is basal to the Vetigastropoda.[4] The Neomphalina is, based on optimal phylogenetic analysis, a monophyletic clade, with uncertain relations among the gastropods.[5] [6]
Description
The anatomical characters of the Neomphaloidea largely follow the patterns as in the Vetigastropoda. But unusual morphological and phylogentic characters suggest a different systematic position and place it in its own clade, the Neomphalina.. The formal placement of Neomphalina within the Gastropoda however remains ambiguous. [6]
Families
Families within the Neomphaloidea include:
- Melanodrymiidae Salvini-Plawen & Steiner, 1995[3]
- Neomphalidae McLean, 1981[3]
- Peltospiridae McLean, 1989[3]
A few genera within Neomphaloidea have been unassigned to a family:
- Helicrenion Warén & Bouchet, 1993[7]
- Retiskenea Warén & Bouchet, 2001[8]
See also
The other superfamily of hydrothermal vent limpets is the Lepetodriloidea.
