Cylindrobulla
Cylindrobulla is a genus of sea snails or bubble snails, marine gastropod mollusks in the clade Sacoglossa.[1]
Cylindrobulla is the type genus of the family Cylindrobullidae[4] and it is the only genus in the family.
Taxonomy
The suborder Cylindrobulloidea used to be recognized as monogeneric suborder; in other words there was only one family in the suborder, the family Cylindrobullidae, and only one genus Cylindrobulla.
1996 taxonomy
It was treated by Jensen (1996)[5] as a sister group of Sacoglossa and placed it in the new order Cylindrobullacea.
1998 taxonomy
Mikkelsen (1998)[6] has argued that the genus Cylindrobulla actually belongs in Oxynoacea within shelled Sacoglossa.[6] This change in taxonomy was suggested on the basis of the similarity in many characteristics: digestive, sexual, pallial (= concerning the mantle), and the nervous system.[6]
2005 taxonomy
According to the taxonomy by Bouchet & Rocroi (2005), is the Cylindrobullidae the only family in the superfamily Cylindrobulloidea and Cylindrobulloidea is the only superfamily within the group Cylindrobullida in the infomal group Opisthobranchia.[4]
According to the taxonomy of the Gastropoda by Bouchet & Rocroi (2005) the family Cylindrobullidae has no subfamilies.
2010 taxonomy
Molecular phylogeny analysis by Maeda et al. (2010)[1] have confirmed placement of Cylindrobulla within Sacoglossa.[1]
