Amphiboloidea is a taxonomic superfamily of air-breathing land snails.

Distribution

Amphibolids are found in Indo-Pacific intertidal mangrove, saltmarsh and estuarine mudflat habitats.[1]
Taxonomy
2005 taxonomy

According to the taxonomy of the Gastropoda (Bouchet & Rocroi, 2005), it is a superfamily in the informal group Basommatophora, within the Pulmonata.[2]

This superfamily has contained only one family, the Amphibolidae.[2]
2007 taxonomy

Golding et al. (2007)[1] have established new families:

Maningrididae Golding, Ponder & Byrne, 2007[1] - with the only species Maningrida arnhemensis[1]
Phallomedusidae Golding, Ponder & Byrne, 2007[1]

2010 taxonomy

Basommatophora (Siphonarioidea and Amphiboloidea and Hygrophila) have been found polyphyletic and so Jörger et al. (2010)[3] have moved Amphiboloidea to Panpulmonata.
