Dear Bill,
I would like to know the period in which appeared the first known fossils of opisthobranchs.
Thank you.
Lucas.

I think there are 'opisthobranchs' known from as far back as the Cretaceous. If there is anyone who would be willing to prepare a summary on the topic it would be very welcome
Best wishes,
Bill Rudman
