Pulsellum [Pulsellum]

Description

Pulsellum includes a variety of scaphopod mollusks known for their relatively short, curved shells. These organisms are adapted to life in a range of marine environments, from shallow coastal areas to the deeper sea floor. Pulsellum species utilize their foot to dig into sediment, where they remain partially buried while extending their feeding apparatus into the water to capture food particles.
