   An earlier name for the class of Mollusca including all those
   that have bivalve shells, as the clams, oysters, mussels,
   etc., now called Pelecypoda or Bivalvia.
   [1913 Webster +PJC]

   Note: They usually have two (rarely but one) flat,
         lamelliform gills on each side of the body. They have
         an imperfectly developed head, concealed within the
         shell, whence they are called Acephala. Called also
         Conchifera, and Pelecypoda. See Bivalve.
