Morphobiological Analysis of the Shell Structure in the Brachiopod Subclass Strophomenata

Morphobiological analysis of shell structure elements in brachiopods of the related orders Strophomenida, Chonetida and Productida of the subclass Strophomenata, shows that their general type of filter feeding system comprised a functionally joined lophophore, specialized mantle and musculature.
