This volume examines important recent findings on the evolution of molluscs resulting from important new evidence in the fossil record. Paleontologists and zoologists present a synthetic treatment of all classes of the Mollusca, except the Cephalopods, covered in Volume 12. Topics include: molluscan origin and early evolution; the evolution of Gastropoda and Bivalvia; assessment of limpets, land snails, and the Anomalodesmata.
