Architectibranchia is a clade of marine snails, gastropod molluscs.
It was originally established containing the superfamilies Acteonoidea, Ringiculoidea, and Diaphanoidea.
2005 taxonomy
Architectibranchia was not used in the taxonomy by Bouchet & Rocroi (2005) and this taxon name has been listed as an available name.
2009 taxonomy
Clade Architectibranchia was reinstated by Malaquias et al. in 2009; they limited the taxon to Acteonoidea and Ringiculoidea.
There are five families within the clade Architectibranchia:
2010 taxonomy
Taxon Architectibranchia is not explicitly mentioned in the molecular analysis by Jörger et al. (2010). However, some of its members were included: Acteonoidea was moved to Lower Heterobranchia.
