Phylum Mollusca (mollis, soft)
Body usually an anterior head, ventral foot and a dorsal visceral mass.
Covered by a fleshy outgrowth of the body wall called a mantle.
� Shell if present is secreted by the mantle
Radula- a tongue-like structure bearing transvers rows of minute chitinous teeth.
Good phylum for demonstrating Adaptative Radiation.
With the exception of Monoplacophora, the phylum is unsegmented.

Systems
Skeletal- Mantle may secretes a shell. Use hydrostatic pressure for ventral muscular foot.
Muscles -Ventral muscular foot and other muscles present.
Digestive- complete complex with salivary glands, digestive gland and Rasping tongue (Radula).
Circulatory - Open except for Cephalopoda. Dorsal heart, usually in a pericardial cavity.
Respiratory - Ctenidia (gills) in mantle cavity, respiratory pigment is copper.

Systems
Excretory- by nephridia usually connecting to the pericardial cavity,
� the coelom is usually reduced to the cavities of the nephridia, gonads and pericardium.
Nervous - Nerve ring with various pairs of ganglia—two pairs of nerve cords, one innervating the foot, the other the visceral mass (modified ventral ladder-like system)
Integumentary - Mantle
Endocrine - nervous systems produces hormones.
Reproductive - varied- monoecious, protandric, or dioecious. Larva in marine = trochophore and veliger, in freshwater clam is glochidium.

Class Polyplacophora (Chitons)
Elliptical body with dorsal surface bearing eight overlapping limy plates (valves)
Chitons are marine.
� They live mostly in shallow water.
� All are similar in morphology and ecology.
� They are slow moving microphagous feeders, scraping algae and other small invertebrates from substrate with their radula.

Class Monoplacophora
First 10 specimens of Neopilina were taken
in 1952 from dark muddy clay at 3350
m(11,000 ft) off the coast of Costa Rica.
Since then other species have been found in
Indo-Pacific and South Atlantic Oceans.
Neopilina is the only living genus
Neopilina has segmented muscles
