Fossil record
Great proof exists for the presence of gastropods, cephalopods and bivalves in the Cambrian time frame 541 to 485.4 million years prior, or significantly prior. The principal molluscs seem to have been started earlier.[49][50] However, the developmental history both of the rise of molluscs from the familial gathering Lophotrochozoa, and of their broadening into the notable living and fossil structures, is still overwhelmingly wrangled about.
Face off regarding happens about whether some Ediacaran and Early Cambrian fossils truly are molluscs. Kimberella, from around 555 million years prior, has been portrayed by a few scientistss as "mollusc-like",[51][52] yet others are unwilling to go more remote than "plausible bilaterian".[53][54] There is a considerably more keen verbal confrontation about whether Wiwaxia, from around 505 million years back, was a mollusc, and a lot of this focuses on whether its nourishing device was a sort of radula or more like that of some polychaete worms.[53][55] Nicholas Butterfield, who restricts the possibility that Wiwaxia was a mollusc, has composed that prior microfossils from 515 to 510 million years back are parts of a truly mollusc-like radula.[56] This seems to repudiate the idea that the tribal molluscan radula was mineralized.[57]
The little Helcionellid fossil Yochelcionella is thought to be an early mollusc[47]
Spirally wound shells show up in numerous gastropods.[13]
Nonetheless, the Helcionellids, which first show up more than 540 million years prior in Early Cambrian rocks from Siberia and China,[58][59] are thought to be early molluscs with rather snail-like shells. Shelled molluscs along these lines originate before the soonest trilobites.[47] Although most helcionellid fossils are just a couple of millimeters long, examples a couple of centimeters long have likewise been found, most with more limpet-like shapes. The modest examples have been proposed to be adolescents and the bigger ones adults.[60]
A few investigations of helcionellids finished up these were the most punctual gastropods.[61] However, different researchers are not persuaded these Early Cambrian fossils hint at clear the torsion that distinguishes present day gastropods winds the inner organs so the butt lies over the head.[13][62][63]

Septa and siphuncle in nautiloid shell
Volborthella, a few fossils of which originate before 530 million years back, was for quite some time thought to be a cephalopod, however revelations of more point by point fossils demonstrated its shell was not emitted, but rather worked from grains of the mineral silicon dioxide (silica), and it was not separated into a progression of compartments by septa as those of fossil shelled cephalopods and the living Nautilus are. Volborthella's characterization is uncertain.[64] The Late Cambrian fossil Plectronoceras is currently thought to be the most punctual obviously cephalopod fossil, as its shell had septa and a siphuncle, a strand of tissue that Nautilus uses to expel water from compartments it has cleared as it develops, and which is additionally noticeable in fossil ammonite shells. In any case, Plectronoceras and other early cephalopods crawled along the ocean bottom as opposed to swimming, as their shells contained a "weight" of stony stores on what is thought to be the underside, and had stripes and blotches on what is thought to be the upper surface.[65] All cephalopods with outer shells aside from the nautiloids got to be distinctly terminated before the finish of the Cretaceous time frame 65 million years ago.[66] However, the shell-less Coleoidea (squid, octopus, cuttlefish) are inexhaustible today.[67]
The Early Cambrian fossils Fordilla and Pojetaia are viewed as bivalves.[68][69][70][71] "Current looking" bivalves showed up in the Ordovician time frame, 488 to 443 million years ago.[72] One bivalve gathering, the rudists, got to be distinctly real reef-manufacturers in the Cretaceous, yet got to be distinctly wiped out in the Cretaceous–Paleogene eradication event.[73] Even along these lines, bivalves stay rich and assorted.
The Hyolitha are a class of wiped out creatures with a shell and operculum that might be molluscs. Creators who recommend they merit their own particular phylum don't remark on the position of this phylum in the tree of life[74]

A conceivable "family tree" of molluscs (2007).[75][76] Does exclude annelid worms as the examination focused on fossilizable "hard" features.[75]
The phylogeny (developmental "family tree") of molluscs is a questionable subject. Notwithstanding the civil arguments about whether Kimberella and any of the "halwaxiids" were molluscs or firmly identified with molluscs,[52][53][55][56] talks about emerge about the connections between the classes of living molluscs.[54] truth be told, a few gatherings generally delegated molluscs may must be reclassified as unmistakable yet related.[77]
Molluscs are by and large respected individuals from the Lophotrochozoa,[75] a gathering characterized by having trochophore hatchlings and, on account of living Lophophorata, an encouraging structure called a lophophore. Alternate individuals from the Lophotrochozoa are the annelid worms and seven marine phyla.[78] The graph on the privilege outlines a phylogeny introduced in 2007.
Since the connections between the individuals from the family tree are questionable, it is hard to recognize the components acquired from the last basic predecessor of all molluscs.[79] For instance, it is dubious whether the genealogical mollusc was metameric (made out of rehashing units)— on the off chance that it was, that would propose a cause from an annelid-like worm.[80] Scientists differ about this: Giribet and partners closed, in 2006, the redundancy of gills and of the foot's retractor muscles were later developments,[6] while in 2007, Sigwart finished up the hereditary mollusc was metameric, and it had a foot utilized for inching and a "shell" that was mineralized.[54] In one specific branch of the family tree, the shell of conchiferans is thought to have advanced from the spicules (little spines) of aplacophorans; yet this is hard to accommodate with the embryological roots of spicules.[79]
The molluscan shell seems to have begun from a bodily fluid covering, which in the end solidified into a fingernail skin. This would have been impermeable and subsequently constrained the improvement of more advanced respiratory mechanical assembly as gills.[47] Eventually, the fingernail skin would have gotten to be mineralized,[47] utilizing the same hereditary hardware (engrailed) as most other bilaterian skeletons.[80] The main mollusc shell more likely than not was strengthened with the mineral aragonite.[81]

Morphological investigations have a tendency to recoup a conchiferan clade that gets less support from atomic analyses,[82] in spite of the fact that these outcomes likewise prompt to startling paraphylies, for example scrambling the bivalves all through all other mollusc groups.[83]
Notwithstanding, an examination in 2009 utilizing both morphological and sub-atomic phylogenetics correlations finished up the molluscs are not monophyletic; specifically, Scaphopoda and Bivalvia are both isolated, monophyletic ancestries inconsequential to the rest of the molluscan classes; the customary phylum Mollusca is polyphyletic, and it must be made monophyletic if scaphopods and bivalves are excluded.[77] A 2010 investigation recuperated the conventional conchiferan and aculiferan amasses, and indicated molluscs were monophyletic, showing that accessible information for solenogastres was contaminated.[84] Current sub-atomic information are inadequate to oblige the molluscan phylogeny, and since the strategies used to decide the trust in clades are inclined to overestimation, it is dangerous to put an excess of accentuation even on the zones of which diverse reviews agree.[85] Rather than taking out impossible connections, the most recent reviews include new changes of inside molluscan connections, notwithstanding bringing the conchiferan speculation into question.
