Mollusca is a major group of invertebrate animals that includes snails, clams, and related creatures, with around 86,600 known living species making it the second-largest animal phylum. Molluscs matter because they are incredibly diverse and abundant in ecosystems worldwide, though many species remain unstudied and poorly understood by scientists.

Molluscs are the largest marine phylum, comprising about 23% of all the named marine organisms. They are highly diverse, not just in size and anatomical structure, but also in behavior and habitat, as numerous groups are freshwater and even terrestrial species. The phylum is typically divided into 7 or 8 taxonomic classes, of which two are entirely extinct. Cephalopod molluscs, such as squid, cuttlefish, and octopuses, are among the most neurologically advanced of all invertebrates—and either the giant squid or the colossal squid is the largest known extant invertebrate species. The gastropods (snails, slugs and abalone) are by far the most diverse class and account for 80% of the total classified molluscan species.
