Diversity and abundance of pteropods and heteropods along a latitudinal gradient across the Atlantic Ocean
Shelled pteropods and heteropods are two independent groups of holoplanktonic gastropods that are potentially good indicators of the effects of ocean acidification. Although insight into their ecology and biogeography is important for predicting species-specific

Species Abundance, Spatial and Vertical Distributions, and Eye-Size Trends of Large Heteropods (Pterotracheidae and Carinariidae) in the Northern Gulf of Mexico
Heteropods are predatory planktonic gastropods that are important in pelagic ecosystems. However, distributions of large heteropod species are poorly known. Heteropod collections from two midwater sampling programs conducted after the 2010 Deepwater Horizon

Heteropods (Gastropoda: Pterotracheoidea) identified along a coastal-oceanic transect in the Colombian Pacific
With the purpose of establishing the taxonomic composition of the heteropod assembly that inhabits the Colombian Pacific, zooplankton samples were collected in March 2014 along a coastal- offshore transect and later analyzed. Twelve species belonging

Pterotracheidae is a family of medium-sized to large floating sea snails, pelagic gastropod molluscs. They are in the superfamily Pterotracheoidea along with two other similar pelagic families, the Atlantidae and the Carinariidae. These pelagic snails are not at all closely related to the pelagic heterobranch … See more

Do pterotracheids have a shell?
Unlike species comprising the other two families (Atlantidae and Carinaridae), the pterotracheids lack a shell and, except in one species, tentacles immediately anterior to the eyes. The swimming fin is well-developed and in males possesses a sucker on its ventral margin.

How many pterotracheids were there?
Lines are based on linear regression. Grey and black dots represent locations north and south of the equator, respectively. From the 1812 heteropods, a total of 1312 were atlantids, 325 were pterotracheids and 175 were carinariids. Heteropods were not found at stations 1–4 and 30–31.

What are pteropods?
Pteropods are a group of heterobranch gastropods ( Jörger et al., 2010 ), a superorder comprised of the orders Thecosomata, also referred to as “sea butterflies”, and Gymnosomata, or “sea angels” that play an important role in marine food webs ( Lalli and Gilmer, 1989, Pierrot-Bults and Peijnenburg, 2015 ).
