The Pulmonata or "pulmonates" are an order (once a subclass) of snails and slugs that have developed a pallial lung and thus can breathe air. The group includes many land and freshwater families and a few marine ones.

Pulmonata are known from the Carboniferous to the recent periods. [(in Czech) Pek I., Vašíček Z., Roček Z., Hajn. V. & Mikuláš R.: "Základy zoopaleontologie". - Olomouc, 1996. 264 pp., ISBN 80-7067-599-3.]
