The molluscs or mollusks are members of the very large and diverse phylum Mollusca, which includes a wide variety of animals that are well-known for their decorative shells or as seafood. There are some 112,000 species within this phylum.The scientific study of molluscs is called malacology.

Molluscs range from minute snails and clams to larger organisms such as squid, cuttlefish and octopus, which are among the most neurologically-advanced invertebrates.

The vast majority of molluscs live in marine environments, and are found intertidally, in the shallow subtidal and on the continental shelf, although some species do live in the abyssal depths of the oceans around hot vents. Not all mollusks are marine: two groups, the bivalves and the gastropods, also contain freshwater species. Only the gastropods have representatives that live on land: the land snails and slugs.
