== Terminology == When the word "seashells" refers only to the shells of marine mollusks, then studying seashells is part of [[conchology]]. Conchologists or serious collectors who have a scientific bias are in general careful not to disturb living populations and habitats: even though they may collect a few live animals, most responsible collectors do not often over-collect or otherwise disturb ecosystems. The study of mollusks (including their shells) is known as [[malacology]]; a person who studies mollusks is known as a [[malacologist]].
