Gastropods (Class Gastropoda) contain the snails, conchs, and similar snail-like animals. There are about 105,000 species of gastropods. This class is divided into several separate orders:
Sub Class Streptoneura (57,000 species)
Order Diotocardia: Two sets of organs
Order Monotocardia: One set of organs
Sub Class Euthyneura (48,000 species)
Order Cephalaspidea: thin shells, etcetera

Ablacophora: Worm appearing
Polhyplacophora (Amphineura): Chitons
Scaphopoda: Tusk Shells
Gastropoda: Gastropods
Bivalvia (Pelecypoda): Clams, etcetera
Cephalopoda: Octopus, Nautilus
