Ferrissia is a genus of snail, a small freshwater limpet, an aquatic gastropod mollusk in the family Ancylidae, the river limpets.
These animals have a pallial lung, as do all pulmonate snails, but they also have a false gill or "pseudobranch". This serves as a gill as, in their non-tidal habitat, these limpets never reach the surface for air.
Species in the genus Ferrissia
- Ferrissia fragilis (= Ferrissia clessiniana, = Ferrissia wautieri (Mirolli, 1960))
- Hood ancylid, Ferrissia mcneili
- Ferrissia tanganyicensis
