=== Brachiopods === [[File:LingulaanatinaAA.JPG|thumb|A whole animal of the brachiopod ''[[Lingula anatina]]'' from Australia with the shell showing on the left]] The [[brachiopod]]s, or lamp shells, superficially resemble clams, but the phylum is not closely related to mollusks. Most lines of brachiopods ended during the [[Permian-Triassic extinction event]], and their ecological niche was filled by bivalves. A few of the remaining species of brachiopods occur in the low [[intertidal zone]] and thus can be found live by beachcombers.
