Amphiboloidea is a taxonomic superfamily of air-breathing land snails.
Amphibolids are found in Indo-Pacific intertidal mangrove, saltmarsh and estuarine mudflat habitats. [1]
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]
Golding et al. (2007) [1] have established new families:
Basommatophora (Siphonarioidea and Amphiboloidea and Hygrophila) have been found polyphyletic and so Jörger et al. (2010) [3] have moved Amphiboloidea to Panpulmonata.
