Meaning of "zygobranchia" in English

Zygobranchia refers to a taxonomic grouping within the class Gastropoda, more specifically a suborder or group of mollusks. These creatures are characterized by possessing both morphological and functional gills, known as branchiae, that are typically arranged symmetrically. The term is an old classification, and the members are known for their distinctive respiratory system. Zygobranchia are found in marine environments and are typically part of the order Vetigastropoda. Some well-known members include limpets and abalones, which display this bilateral gill structure.
