〔动〕头足纲
Example sentencesExamples
- The class Cephalopoda has been traditionally divided into three subclasses on the basis of shell structure, or two subclasses on the basis of gills and other soft parts.
- It is also now generally thought that they were ancestral to the Cephalopoda and Scaphopoda as well.
- This section covers almost all of the Mollusca except the three huge clades of advanced mollusks: Bivalvia, Cephalopoda, and Gastropoda.
- For example, even within Gastropoda and Cephalopoda, large numbers of rearrangements are common.
- As the most primitive of the Neocephalopoda, they were the ancestors of the Bactridida, which in turn seem to represent the stem group form which all advanced Cephalopoda evolved.

Origin

Modern Latin (plural), from Greek kephalē 'head' + pous, pod- 'foot'.
