Siphonarioidea is a taxonomic superfamily of air-breathing sea snails or false limpets, marine gastropod mollusks in the clade Panpulmonata.
2005 taxonomy
Siphonarioidea was previously a superfamily in the informal group Basommatophora within the Pulmonata.[2]
2010 taxonomy
Jörger et al. (2010)[1] determined that the Basommatophora (Siphonarioidea, Amphiboloidea, and Hygrophila) was a polyphyletic group, and they moved the Siphonarioidea to the Panpulmonata.
