Pteriomorphia
Pteriomorphia (mussels, scallops, oysters; phylum Mollusca, class Bivalvia) A subclass of bivalves, most of which are sedentary,
epifaunal, and
byssate or cemented. The most specialized genera have a reduced anterior adductor muscle and foot, and in some forms they are absent. The shells are variable in shape and composition; they may be
aragonite,
calcite, or both. They have a
duplivincular ligament, unique to certain members of the subclass, and the dentition is variable. They first appeared in the Lower
Ordovician.
