Fissurellidae
Fissurellidae, common name the keyhole limpets and slit limpets, is a taxonomic family of limpet-like sea snails, marine gastropod molluscs in the clade Vetigastropoda.Rosenberg, G. (2012). Fissurellidae. Accessed through: World Register of Marine Species at http://www.marinespecies.org/aphia.php?p=taxdetails&id=111 on 2013-01-02 Their common name derives from the small hole in the apex of their cone-like shells. Although superficially resembling "true" limpets, they are in fact not closely related to them. Distribution The distribution of fissurellids is worldwide, from cold waters to tropical waters.

B., ''New Zealand Mollusca'', William Collins Publishers Ltd, Auckland, New Zealand 1979 Habitat Fissurellids live in habitats on and under rocks in the lower intertidal zones to deeper waters.
