All-class molluscan phylogenomic sample

Every major living molluscan group enters a sampled phylogenomic matrix, including Monoplacophora.

Represented range0–0 Ma

Smith et al. added transcriptomes for 15 species and sampled all major living molluscan groups, recovering Monoplacophora with Cephalopoda in its principal analyses; that Serialia-rejecting topology conflicts with other matrices and is retained as a study-specific result.
