Chiton phylogeny has gone relatively underexplored compared to the more charismatic classes of molluscs, and as such is still somewhat poorly understood. The relationships between orders and superfamilies has been made clear thanks to phylogenomics, [ 42 ] [ 43 ] but interfamilial relationships are still largely unknown because of the lack of ...
In contrast to many other mollusc classes, aplacophorans have no shell, and are instead covered by aragonitic sclerites (calcareous spicules), which can be solid or hollow.. These spicules can be arranged perpendicular to one another within the cuticle to form a skeleton, stick up to form a palisade, or can lie flat against the cutic
Aculifera (older name: Amphineura) is a proposed clade of molluscs incorporating those groups that have no conch or shell, that is, the Polyplacophora, Caudofoveata (=Chaetodermomorpha) and Solenogastres (=Neomeniomorpha). [1]
Aplacophora / æ p l ə ˈ k ɒ f ər ə / is a possibly paraphyletic taxon. This is a class of small, deep-water, exclusively benthic, marine molluscs found in all oceans of the world. [1]
In 2006 a molecular study on Laevipilina antarctica suggested that extant Monoplacophora and Polyplacophora form a well-supported clade with the researched Neopilina closest to the chitons. [6] The two classes in this new clade, with the proposed name Serialia, all show a variable number of serially repeated gills and eight sets of dorsoventral ...
Popular belief: Kit-Kat Reality: Kit Kat Yes, it’s true: A hyphen doesn’t separate the “kit” from “kat.” The brand even addressed the Mandela effect in a tweet from 2016, saying “the ...
The distribution of Chiton magnificus ranges along the Pacific coast of South America from Cape Horn in Chile [3] to San Lorenzo Island in Peru. [2] Although there are old claimed records of this species from the Galápagos Islands, these are now considered incorrect.
Popular examples of the Mandela effect. Here are some Mandela effect examples that have confused me over the years — and many others too. Grab your friends and see which false memories you may ...
