About Limpets. The limpet is a mollusk and it is a member of Acmaeidae family. The limpets can be found throughout littoral zones and they are usually found on rocks near seas or oceans. The limpets have a flat shell and they stick on the rocks by using a muscular foot which allows them to remain attached on rocks if a big wave comes.
In other words, the shell of all limpets is patelliform, which means the shell is shaped more or less like the shell of most true limpets. The term false limpets is used for some (but not all) of these other groups that have a conical shell.Thus, the name limpet is used to describe various extremely diverse groups of gastropods that have independently evolved a shell of the same basic shape (see convergent evolution).hus the common name limpet has very little taxonomic significance in and of itself; the name is applied not only to true limpets (the Patellogastropoda), but also to all snails that have a simple shell that is broadly conical in shape, and either is not spirally coiled, or appears not to be coiled in the adult snail.
