Bivalvia - taxonomy overhaul
Intro notes to section (PLEASE NOTE THIS HAS GONE LIVE ON Bivalvia ALREADY)
Many systems have been developed for the classification of bivalves, but for the past two centuries no professional consensus has existed on bivalve phylogeny. In the earlier taxonomic systems experts used only one characteristic feature for their taxonomic system, either shell morphology, hinge type, or the type of gills. Many conflicts existed due to taxonomies based on single organ systems and conflicting naming schemes proliferated. One of the most widely accepted systems was that of Newell in the Treatise on Invertebrate Paleontology Moore [ed.] (1969), which employed a classification system based on general shell shape, microstructures and hinge configuration.[1] Since features such as hinge morphology, dentition, mineralogy, and shell morphology and composition change slowly these characteristics can be used for defining major taxonomic groups. Due to the numerous fossil lineages, DNA sequence data is of limited use in classifying extinct species.
In the last decade, taxonomic studies using
Heterodonta. Molecular phylogeny work continues, further refining the taxonomy of the Bivalvia.[8][9]
2010 proposed taxonomy of the Bivalvia
In May 2010 a new taxonomy of the Bivalvia was published in the journal Malacologia. In this classification 324 families were recognized as valid, 214 of which are known exclusively as fossils and 110 families occur in the Recent with or without a fossil record.[10] This publication consisted of two parts :
- Nomenclator of Bivalve Names of the Family-Group and above
- Classification of Bivalve Families (under the redaction of Rüdiger Bieler, Joseph G. Carter and Eugene V. Coan)
The 2010 proposed taxonomy of the Class Bivalvia is as follows:
