CIDE DICTIONARY

scutibranchiatan. pl. [NL. See Scutum, and Branchia.].
     An order of gastropod Mollusca having a heart with two auricles and one ventricle. The shell may be either spiral or shieldlike.  [1913 Webster]
    " It is now usually regarded as including only the Rhipidoglossa and the Docoglossa. When originally established, it included a heterogenous group of mollusks having shieldlike shells, such as Haliotis, Fissurella, Carinaria, etc."  [1913 Webster]
