Tribe of gastropods
Ancylini is a
tribe of small, freshwater, air-breathing
limpets ,
aquatic
pulmonate
gastropod
mollusks in the family
Planorbidae , the ram's horn snails and their allies. This tribe used to be treated as a family; the current taxonomic placement within Planorbidae is according to the
taxonomy of the Gastropoda (Bouchet & Rocroi, 2005) .
These animals have a
pallial lung, as do all
pulmonate snails, but they also have a false gill or "
pseudobranch " which can serve perfectly well as a
gill in situations where the limpet is unable to reach the surface for air, as is often the case.
