Gastropoda
Gastropoda (gastropods; phylum Mollusca) A class of molluscs, of asymmetrical form, including snails and slugs, which have a true head, an unsegmented body, and a broad, flat foot. When present, the shell is in one piece and spirally coiled, at least in young stages. The
mantle cavity and visceral mass have undergone
torsion, at least in the developmental stage. There is usually a well-developed
radula. Gastropods inhabit a wide range of aquatic and terrestrial environments, and range from the
Cambrian to the present. Fossils of coiled gastropod shells are common in marine rocks, especially those of the
Cenozoic. All fossil gastropods and most modern ones have a coiled shell, which is all that remains for the identification of fossil forms. The identification of modern species is based largely on soft body parts.
