Parilimyidae is a family of bivalves belonging to the superorder Anomalodesmata. [1] [2]
Genera: [1]
Hypsogastropoda is a clade containing marine gastropods within the clade Caenogastropoda.
Nuculidae is a family of small saltwater clams in the order Nuculida. Species in this family are commonly known as nut clams.
Anomalodesmata is an superorder of saltwater clams, marine bivalve molluscs. This grouping was formerly recognised as a taxonomic subclass. It is called a superorder in the current World Register of Marine Species, despite having no orders, to parallel it with sister taxon Imparidentia, which does have orders.
Myochamidae is a family of saltwater clams, marine bivalves in the order Anomalodesmata.
Hiatellidae is a taxonomic family of saltwater clams, marine bivalve molluscs. This family is placed in the order Adapedonta.
Isognomonidae is a family of medium-sized to large saltwater clams. They are pearl oysters, marine bivalve molluscs in the superfamily Pterioidea
Vesicomyidae is a family of saltwater clams, marine bivalve molluscs in the superfamily Glossoidea.
Sportellidae is a family of marine bivalve molluscs of the superfamily Cyamioidea.
Crassatellidae is a family of small saltwater clams, marine bivalve molluscs of the order Carditida.
Pandoridae is a taxonomic family of small saltwater clams, marine bivalves in the order Anomalodesmata.
Poromyidae is a family of saltwater clams, marine bivalve molluscs in the order Anomalodesmata. The genus Dilemma, described in 2008, is remarkable for being a predator of copepods, which is very unusual for a sessile mollusc.
Thraciidae is a taxonomic family of small saltwater clams, marine bivalves in the order Anomalodesmata.
Dilemma is a genus of marine bivalves of the family Poromyidae. The genus is remarkable for encompassing predators of isopods and ostracods, unusual for sessile molluscs. One species is known from the western Atlantic Ocean and three from across the Pacific. Specimens have been found at depths between 229–961 m (751–3,153 ft). The name of the genus refers to the dilemma that the author of the new genus faced while diagnosing it.
Oxynooidea is a superfamily of small sea snails, bubble snails and bivalved gastropods, marine gastropod mollusks within the superorder Sacoglossa.
The Pectinoidea are a superfamily of marine bivalve molluscs, including the scallops and spiny oysters.
Cyrenidae is a family of clams in the order Venerida.
Protocuspidariidae is a family of bivalves belonging to the superfamily Cuspidarioidea in the superorder Anomalodesmata.
Borniopsis is a genus of bivalves belonging to the family Lasaeidae.
Grippina is a genus of bivalves in the family Spheniopsidae which currently consists of nine species. It was first described by William Dall in 1912 with G. californica recorded in the eastern Pacific Ocean near California, US. Their habitat spans across the Pacific Ocean, mainly centering around Australia and New Zealand, though G. coronata was found in 2015 off the coast of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil in the western Atlantic Ocean. Bivalves in the genus Grippina are part of the order Anomalodesmata, also known as septibranchs, which are carnivorous clams. They use their inhalant siphons, adapted with sensory papillae to detect motion, to inhale microscopic crustaceans such as ostracods. As sessile, benthic predators, they lie in wait under sand and stick their siphons out into open water to feed. Their shells range in size from about 2–5 millimeters.
