	Opisthobranchia - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In zoology, the Opisthobranchia (Milne Edwards, 1848) (also known as opisthobranchs) used to be a subclass of gastropods, within the phylum Mollusca, but they are now treated as an order.
		It is speculated that the Opisthobranchia may be paraphyletic (Haszprunar, 1985), having given rise to the Pulmonata, although evidence is still somewhat disputed.
		The Opisthobranchia are therefore a non-clade and can no longer be accepted as a taxon.

		Euthyneurans are hermaphroditic, exhibit a tendency to reduce or loose the shell, tend to be bilaterally symmetrical, and usually lack an operculum.
		Opisthobranchia is a heterogeneous assortment of gastropods in several taxa.
		Opisthobranchia is no longer thought to be a monophyletic taxon but so far it has not been possible to decipher its evolution and relationship with other gastropods.

	Heterobranchia - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The families included in this recently established superorder of mollusks (G. Haszprunar, 1985) have made a long evolutionary journey through the class of the gastropods.
		Earlier authors (as J.E. Gray, 1840) put the Heterobranchia as a borderline case between de Opisthobranchia and Pulmonata on the one hand, and the other gastropods on the other hand.
		The bodies of the Opisthobranchia have undergone detorsion (= unwinding).

	Palaeos Invertebrates : Mollusca : Gastropoda : Gastropoda
		Although many gastropods are herbivorous grazers, several groups are active carnivores able to drill through the shell of their victim, or in the case of predatory forms like the Conidae (Neogastropoda) cases swallow it whole through a proboscis.
		But the real acme of gastropod evolution was reached in the Cenozoic, continuing until the present, with the great success of the long-siphoned neogastropods which dominate today's gastropod fauna.
		Gastropod systematics and phylogenetic understanding has undergone radical revision in the last few decades, and the old three-fold classification of Prosobranchia, Opisthobranchia, and Pulmonata, with the Prosobranchia divided into Archaeogastropoda, Mesogastropoda, and Neogastropoda, is no longer accepted by recent workers in this field, who have adopted a cladistic perspective based on more thorough recent research.

		Although the Opisthobranchia comprise a very diverse group of gastropod molluscs they all have one thing in common: they are hermaphrodites and have a rather complex genital system.
		During their evolutionary history they have evolved a variety of reproductive structures to meet the functional needs of being male and female at the same time.

	Palaeos Invertebrates : Mollusca : Gastropoda : Pulmonata (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		The Pulmonates differ from the "Prosobranchs" by detorsion and symmetrical concentrated nervous system, primitively loss of gills and a mantle cavity converted into a lung for gas exchange with air (or secondarily breathing water) and (with only exception) lack of an operculum.
		It is not known whether Pulmonates evolved from terrestrial or freshwater ancestors, but the fact that both Heterostropha and Opisthobranchia include almost only marine forms, and the Siphonaroid limpets retain a veliger larva, would indicate the latter.
		It is speculated that they evolved from ancestral forms inhabiting estuarine marshes and mud flats, the pulmonate condition having evolved a s a means of gas exchange when the animals were confined to small stagnant puddles during the dry season [Barnes 1980 p.338].

		The marine species (subclasses Prosobranchia and Opisthobranchia) are most commonly found in benthic habitats, but some species are pelagic.
		The third subclass, Pulmonata, has conquered land by eliminating the gills and converting the mantle cavity into a lung.

		Abstract A karyological investigation was carried out on the testis cells of the tidal pool sacoglossan sea slug Stiliger felinus from New Zealand.
		The haploid chromosome set was characterised by 14 elements where median-, subterminal-, and terminal-centromere chromosomes were present.
		Using flow cytometric analysis, haploid genome size of the species was found to be 2.8 pg: the highest value encountered in the subclass Opisthobranchia.
