Stylommatophora is an infraorder (also sometimes considered an order) of air-breathing land snails and slugs, terrestrial pulmonate gastropod molluscs.

The Stylommatophora are distinct from other pulmonates in that they possess eyes that sit on top of retracable tentacles. The Pulmonata or "pulmonates" are an order (once a Subclass) of Snails and Slugs that have developed a pallial Lung Tentacles can refer to the elongated flexible organs that are present in some animals especially Invertebrates and sometimes to the hairs of the leaves of some insectivorous
