Parasitism and similar feeding types are major trophic modes in modern gastropods
and is present in as many as 10,000 extant species with Pyramidellidae being most
diverse. This underlines the trophic diversity of gastropods which is most likely one
of the major reasons for their evolutionary success.
Acknowledgments I would like to thank Anders Warén and Philippe Bouchet for helpful discussions and providing images. I thank Kenneth de Baets and Andrzej Kaim who provided critical,
helpful reviews.
