	abstract = {The origin of the anomalodesmatan bivalves and the relationships of the constituent families are far from being settled. Phylogenetic uncertainties result from the morphological heterogeneity of the Anomalodesmata and from parallel/convergent evolution of several character complexes due to similar life habits. Here, we assess these problems with 26 near-complete anomalodesmatan 18S rRNA sequences from 12 out of 15 families and a selection of heteroconch outgroup taxa. The robustly monophyletic Anomalodesmata share insertions in the V2 and V4 expansion regions. Both parsimony and maximum-likelihood analyses confirm their position among the basal heterodonts rooting between Carditidae and Lucinidae or, together with the latter, between Carditidae and the remaining Heterodonta. There is no support for monophyletic Myoida, nor for a close relationship of Anomalodesmata with any myoid taxon. At the base of the Anomalodesmata is an unstable cluster of long-branch species belonging to the Poromyidae, Verticordiidae, Lyonsiellidae and Thraciidae. The remaining Anomalodesmata split consistently but with varying branch support into three major clades: the Cuspidariidae excluding Myonera; a {\textquoteright}thraciid{\textquoteright} clade consisting of (Euciroidae, (Myonera (Thracia, Cleidothaerus, Myochamidae))); and a {\textquoteright}lyonsiid{\textquoteright} clade with Laternulidae, Pandoridae, diphyletic Lyonsiidae due to a robust clade of Lyonsia norwegica and the clavagellid Brechites vaginiferus. Tests of various alternative topologies showed that all are significantly longer but optimal likelihood trees with monophyletic carnivorous taxa and/or Thraciidae are not significantly less likely. These results differ greatly from previous morphological studies. Palaeontological data and homology decisions for selected characters are evaluated in the light of the molecular trees.

Comparison of the new sequences with the published sequences of 1 annelid, 2 gastropods, 2 polyplacophorans, and 19 bivalves showed that when the annelids are used as outgroup the gastropods diverge from the bivalves, which form a cluster including the polyplacophorans. When the gastropods alone were compared with the bivalves, the latter split in two groups corresponding to the two subclasses of Heterodonta and Pteriomorpha. The former include two taxa that diverged early, Galeomma and Tridacna, while the Veneridae and Mactridae form two sister groups. In contrast to previous reports and in line with morphological data, the Ostreidae are included in the Pteriomorphia and form a monophyletic group.},

	abstract = {Pectinidae is a large bivalve family characterised by almost circular, flat shells. Species are distributed worldwide and fall into three life-styles: swimming, byssally attached to hard substrates, and cemented to rocks with one valve. Despite these very different life strategies, pectinid shells are highly conservative in shape and offer few clues for the unravelling of phylogenetic issues. Consequently, phylogenetic studies based on morphological features have not yielded conclusive results. We thus set out to analyse partial sequences of mitochondrial 12S and 16S rRNA genes from 23 species of 16 genera with molecular techniques. The results are largely in contrast, both at the genus and the subfamily level, with the systematic classifications based on adult morphological characters, whereas they agree with the morphological classifications based on the more conserved non-adaptive features.
