model of Levi-Kalisman et al. (2001) and extend the more detailed
model ofBezareset al. (2008,2010). Weobservevia SEMimagingof

in all layers are aligned normal to the growth direction of the shell.
Similar alignment has been suggested in the literature for two other
classes of mollusks, viz. N. rupertus and P. martensii (Weiner and
Traub,1983;Wada,1958),suggestingthatthismaybeamoregeneral
