Morphological grounds for the obligate aerial respiration of an aquatic snail: functional and evolutionary perspectives
The freshwater caenogastropod family Ampullariidae is emerging as a model for a variety of studies, among them, the evolution of terrestriality. A common character of the family is that all its members bear a lung while retaining the ancestral gill. This ensures that many ampullariids are able to in...
