Extract

The shell and gizzard plates of Philine aperta were first described in 1616 by Fabius Colonna. Linnæus (1767) included the animal in his genus Bulla, and named it Bulla aperta. In 1772 Ascanius made a new genus, Philine, with P. aperta as type.

Cuvier (1810) created the order Tectibranchiata, and in the “Règne Animal” (1817) grouped in this order Pleurobranchus, Aplysia, Dolabella, Notarchus, Bulla, and Philine.

Fischer (1887) divided the Tectibranchs into the Cephalaspidea, the Anaspidea, and the Notaspidea; the first with a cephalic disc, the last with a dorsal shield, and the Anaspidea with neither.
