Abstract Smaragdinella marine snails are the only members of the family Haminoeidae and the order Cephalaspidea that inhabit hard substrates in the upper tidal zone, making them of special evolutionary interest. To investigate whether possible novel trophic adaptations coupled with unique morphological traits may underlie this ecological shift, we analysed the gut contents and microbiota of Smaragdinella viridis using DNA metabarcoding (COI and 16S rRNA) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM).
