Monoplacophora Mollusca Animalia Flora and Fauna

Monoplacophora is a class of mollusks thought to be extinct until 1952, when a living animal was dredged up from deep marine sediments. They have a single, flat, bilateral shell that is often thin and fragile. About two dozen living species of monoplacophorans have now been discovered, all living in deep sea trenches.
