BIBLIOGRAPHIC RECORD The Columbia Encyclopedia, Sixth Edition. Mollusca (m l KEY ) , taxonomic name for the one of the largest phyla of invertebrate animals (Arthropoda is the largest) comprising more than 50,000 living mollusk species and about 35,000 fossil species dating back to the Cambrian period. Mollusks are soft-bodied, and most have a prominent shell. The members of this highly successful and diverse phylum are mostly aquatic and include the familiar

    Extractions: Molluscs are one of the largest animal phylums, with between 50000-110000 species! Octopus, squid, snails, nudibranchs, and bivalves are all molluscs. There is much diversity in this group, but most members have a shell made of calcium carbonate set in a protein matrix. The shell is made of three layers: the outer, organic periostracum, the middle, calcareous prismatic layer, and the calcareous inner nacreous layer. The shell is secreted by a tissue called the mantle. Most molluscs also have a muscular "foot" that is used for locomotion. The "inside scoop" on a typical gastropod. Snails and nudibranchs belong to the Class Gastropoda. Gastropods are diverse in terms of habitat and biology. Because they are often slow moving, many have well-adapted chemical and behavioural responses to predators. The columellar muscle retracts the soft body into the shell, and a hard proteinaceaous disc called the operculum functions as a trap door. The Class Bivalvia includes clams, mussels, oysters and scallops. Bivalves have a hinged shell with two valves and a spacious interior (mantle) cavity. They are usually sedentary and filter or deposit feed. Siphons are used for the inflow and outflow of water, and these can be extended for some distance, so that the bivalve can hide underground away from predators.

    Extractions: Some clams in the family Veneridae have built in biological clocks. If you were to put a clam in an aquarium, in a darkened room far from the ocean, it would still open during times of high tide on its home beach, and close during times of low tide. It is likely that this biological clock is controlled by its nervous system. One way that this clock could help the clam out is by preparing the digestive system an hour or so before the rising tide covers the animal. This way, the clam is ready to filter the water and eat the moment the tide covers it, and does not have to wait for environmental cues.

    Extractions: The Phylum Mollusca is made up of over 150,000 diverse species appearing very different but sharing certain basic characteristics. All mollusks have a muscular foot used for locomotion, as well as a mantle, an outgrowth that covers the animal. Many mollusks have an external calcium carbonate shell, hanging over the mantle, that is actually produced by the mantle. The mantle is also used in respiration, waste disposal, and sensory reception. It often creates a mantle cavity, where the gill is housed. The gill of a mollusk extracts oxygen from the water and disposes of waste. All species of the phylum Mollusca have a complete digestive tract, spanning from the mouth to the anus. Many also have a radula, a unique organ composed mostly of chitin, in the mouth. The radula allows the animal to scrape food from surfaces, especially the ocean floor, by sliding back and forth. Mollusks have a coelom, which is develops from solid cell masses. This makes all species in this phylum protosomes. All organs are suspended in mesentary tissue within this mesodermic coelom, between the outer covering (ectoderm) and the digestive tube (endoderm) of the animal. Interestingly, the phylum Mollusca is one of only two major coelomate phyla that do not have body segmentation (the other being Echinodermata, as well as other lophophorate phyla). There are seven main classes of mollusks.

    Extractions: Mollusks are unsegmented caelmate animals with a head, mantle and muscular foot. They are mostly aquatic. They are softbodied with one or multiple hard shells, and they have a 3 chambered heart. All except bivalves have a radula, which is an organ used for scraping. There are at least 47,000 species of mollusks. Class Bivalvia includes clams, oysters and mussels. Bivalves are surrounded by two shells joined by a hinge ligament. Class Gastropoda includes snails. Gastropods usually have a one piece shell. Class Cephalodopa includes cuttelfish, squids, and octopi. Cephalopods are the most active and intelligent of the mollusks. Class Polyplacophora includes Chitons. Those have a close resemblance to the hypothetical primitive form of mollusks. They have an elongated body with a mantle embedded with 8 dorsal plates.

    Extractions: Classification of the Mollusca A Classification of the Mollusca by Dr. Gary Rosenberg The following classification ( ) reflects many changes in ideas of molluscan relationships in the last fifteen years, particularly among gastropods. The subclass Prosobranchia, which is normally considered to include all the gastropods except the pulmonates and opisthobranchs, is not recognized. Biological groups should include the common ancestor and all of its descendants, but when defined in this way, Prosobranchia becomes a synonym of Gastropoda. Thus, an increasing number of biologists, prefer to use prosobranch as a descriptive term, rather than as the name of a taxon. The Archaeogastropoda suffer from the same problem. Some workers restrict the archaeogastropods to the Pleurotomarioidea, Fissurelloidea, and Trochoidea, excluding the Cocculiniformia, and Patellogastropoda, others prefer the name Vetigastropoda for this group, to avoid confusion between a narrowly and a broadly defined Archaeogastropoda. As shown in an evolutionary tree , there are many different major lineages of gastropods. If this tree is correct, it would be appropriate to consider each of these lineages a subclass. In the classification herein, they are ranked as orders, because no name of subclass rank has been introduced for some of them. In order to maintain consistency of ranks within the tree, Pulmonata and Opisthobranchia are called orders, although they are usually considered subclasses. The problem of non-equivalence of ranks results from various groups of workers with disparate traditions working on different groups of gastropods. At present it is impossible to present a classification that simultaneously gives consistent ranks and reflects current usage; this classification represents a compromise between the two.
