Members of the class Scaphopoda live, partially buried, in soft marine substrates. They have a conical shell that is open at both ends, and the apex of the shell projects above the substrate into the water. Development is external with trochophore and veliger larval stages.
What features of members of the class Scaphopoda (if any) would be considered atypical of molluscs in general?
