Ammonite research
- Evidence indicating that, in spite of drops in taxonomic diversity, the morphological complexity of ammonoid shells did not decline during Early Triassic biotic crises is presented by Miao et al. (2026).[15]
- Two ammonite shells with large, elongated projections near their apertures are described from the Lower Triassic strata in the Paris area (Idaho, United States) by Brayard et al. (2026).[16]
- Neige & van Tiel (2026) study the evolutionary history of the family Dactylioceratidae, and interpret the pattern of changes of their taxonomic and morphological diversity as consistent with background extinction, possibly linked to species specialization making them vulnerable to such extinction.[17]
- Schweigert (2026) reports the discovery of a specimen of Chanasia cf. buckmani from the Callovian strata from Prahecq near Niort (France) with morphological similarities to co-occurring Phlycticeras, interpreted as a possible case of zoomimesis.[18]
- Jattiot & Boursicot (2026) describe fossil material of immature haploceratoid ammonites from the Callovian strata from the Montreuil-Bellay locality (France) distinct from known ammonites and possibly representing a population of Taramelliceras taurimontanum with genetically-induced abnormalities.[19]
- A study on the composition of the Late Jurassic (Kimmeridgian) ammonite faunas of the subtilicaelatum and desmoides biohorizons of the Lacunosamergel Formation (Germany) is published by Jantschke et al. (2026).[20]
- Aguirre-Urreta et al. (2026) report evidence of exceptional preservation of the periostracum in specimens of Bochianites neocomiensis and Lissonia riveroi from Vaca Muerta (Argentina), interpreted as indicative of highly conservative composition of the periostracum throughout the evolutionary history of conchiferan molluscs.[21]

- Nakagawa et al. (2026) report evidence of differences of oxygen and carbon isotopic values in septa and simultaneously formed outer shells of Early Cretaceous (Albian) ammonites from Madagascar, and argue that oxygen isotopic values in ammonite and other cephalopod septa might not reliably reflect seawater temperatures.[25]
- Hefny et al. (2026) revise the composition of Cenomanian and Turonian ammonite assemblages from the strata of the Galala and Umm Omeiyid formations at Wadi Qena (Egypt).[26]
- Bensekhria et al. (2026) study the biostratigraphy of the Albian–Turonian ammonite fossils from the Aurès Basin (Algeria) and compare the composition of the studied ammonite assemblages with those from Tunisia, Western Europe and the Western Interior Seaway, reporting evidence of differences that were likely driven by climatic gradients, marine barriers and variable migration pathways.[27]
- Evidence of morphological differences of members of the genus Gunnarites from distinct locations within the James Ross Basin (Antarctica) is presented by Mohr et al. (2026).[28]

Bivalve research
- Mottin et al. (2026) report the discovery of a new marine bivalve fauna from the postglacial strata of the Permian Rio Bonito Formation (Santa Catarina, Brazil), correlate it with interglacial deposits of the Itararé Group 400 km to the north, and interpret Permian bivalve assemblages from southwestern Gondwana as indicating that glacial conditions associated with the Late Paleozoic icehouse persisted in the northern part of the Paraná Basin for a longer time than in the southern and central parts.[69]
- A review of all published Paleozoic parallelodontid genus- and species-group names is published by Friedel, Neubauer & Amler (2026).[70]
- Suárez & Hautmann (2026) study the taxonomic diversity and distinctness of Triassic marine bivalves, and argue that their recovery in the aftermath of the Permian–Triassic extinction event continued at least until the Norian.[71]
- Evidence of utility of the study of rudist shells from the Maastrichtian Cárdenas Formation (Mexico) in reconstruction of environmental conditions in the western Tethys Ocean during the Cretaceous is presented by Juárez-Aguilar et al. (2026).[72]
- Delvene et al. (2026) report evidence of preservation of elements of the reproductive system in specimens of Margaritifera valdensis from the Lower Cretaceous strata from the Isle of Wight (United Kingdom), and evidence of preservation of fossil embryos indicative of gill brooding in Early Cretaceous unionoid bivalves.[73]
- The first fossil bivalve pearl from the Cretaceous of Russia is reported from the Turonian strata of the Losevo section in the Voronezh Oblast by Shilekhin, Kalabin & Shchedukhin (2026).[74]
- Pérez, Mosquera & Cuitiño (2026) report the discovery of fossil material of Limopsis insolita from the Miocene Gaiman Formation (Argentina), extending its known geographic distribution northwards and representing the first unambiguous record of a member of the genus Limopsis in deeper-water settings in the region.[75]
- Knight (2026) studies the composition of two assemblages of Miocene (Tortonian) bivalves from S'Algar (Menorca, Spain), interpreted as originating from a middle ramp environment that changed through time as a result of changes in the frequency and directionality of storms and currents.[76]
- Amano, Hamuro & Hamuro (2026) describe new fossil material of Nipponocrassatella osawanoensis and "Oxyperas" osawanoensis from the Miocene strata of the Kurosedani Formation (Japan), and allocate the latter species to the genus Pseudoxyperas.[77]
- Amano (2026) describes new thyasirid and vesicomyid fossil material from the Pleistocene strata of the Umegase Formation (Japan), transfers "Thyasira" inflata Yabe & Nomura (1925) to the genus Maorithyas, and coins a replacement name Mendicula angolensis for the extant species Thyasira (Mendicula) inflata Payne & Allen (1991).[78]
- Osipova et al. (2026) revise the composition of the venerid assemblage from the Pleistocene Szekou Formation (Taiwan).[79]
- Evidence from the study of bivalves from the Pleistocene and Holocene strata from Florida (United States) and Italy, indicating that trematode infestation caused abnormal morphological development of shells of affected bivalves and that hampers species delineation and morphometric analyses of fossil bivalves, is presented by Jang et al. (2026).[80]

Gastropod research
- Evidence of a southward expansion of nerineoid gastropods from the Boreal Realm into the Tethyan Realm during the Jurassic period is presented by Leshno Afriat, Rabinovich & Edelman-Furstenberg (2026).[116]
- Li, Xiao & Yu (2026) report the discovery of new fossil material of Coptocheilus electrothauma (originally named Schistoloma electrothauma) from the Cretaceous amber from Myanmar, and revise the diagnostic traits of this species.[117]
- The first known fossils of members of extant species Lanayrella vagabunda are reported from the Miocene strata of the Monte León Formation (Argentina) by Di Luca & Pastorino (2026).[118]
- Botka & Magyar (2026) revise the late Miocene lymnaeid assemblage from the Lake Pannon in Central Europe, identifying 11 species within five genera.[119]
- Systematic revision of Neogastropoda, including a review of their fossil record, is published by Fedosov et al. (2026).[120]

Other molluscan research
- Hou et al. (2026) provide new information on the sclerite ultrastructure of Cambrian maikhanellids from the Kuanchuanpu Formation (China), and interpret maikhanellids as a distinct clade in the stem group of Mollusca.[126]
- A study on the microstructure of shells of Bemella simplex, Latouchella korobkovi and Merismoconcha tommotica from the Cambrian Bayangol Formation (Mongolia), providing evidence of occurrence of a bidirectional foliated aragonite microstructure, is published by Xia & Li (2026).[127]
General research
- Evidence from the study of the molluscan fossil record, indicative of higher frequency of origination of unique and first occurrences of repeated phenotypes during the first 96 million years of the evolutionary history of the group (in the Cambrian and Ordovician) than during the remaining 444 million years of their history, is presented by Vermeij & Thomson (2026).[128]
- A study on the fossil record of bivalves and gastropods from the North American Pacific coast ranging from the Late Cretaceous to the Eocene, providing evidence of loss of morphological diversity after the Cretaceous–Paleogene extinction event and a recovery during the Paleocene, is published by Contreras-Figueroa, Hendy & Aragón (2026).[129]
- Morales-Ortega & González-Barba (2026) study the impact climate and environmental changes on composition of Eocene molluscan assemblages from North and South America, reporting evidence of faunal exchanges between the Atlantic, Pacific and Caribbean Sea, and evidence indicating that peaks of molluscan biodiversity coincided with hyperthermal events.[130]
- Bellosi et al. (2026) revise the age and distribution of the molluscan assemblages from Patagonia living at the time of the Chattian-Langhian marine incursions into southern South America, and provide calibrated dating of the youngest fauna dominated by tropical species.[131]
- A study on the fossil record of late Neogene bivalves and gastropods from the Atlantic coast of North America, providing evidence of links between basal metabolic rates and extinction patterns of the studied molluscs, is published by Rojas-Ariza, Strotz & Lieberman (2026).[132]
- Evidence from the study of the fossil record of molluscs from the East Pisco Basin on the Peruvian continental margin ranging from the late Miocene to the present, indicative of a major faunal shift between 6 and 4 million years ago, is presented by Medina-Franco et al. (2026).[133]
- DeVries (2026) studies the composition of late Pliocene and Pleistocene marine molluscan assemblages from northwestern Peru, and reports evidence of a shift from a cool-water to warm-water fauna during the Pleistocene that might have been linked to uplift of the coastal plain and/or altered equatorial circulation.[134]
- Betz et al. (2026) evaluate functional traits of Pliocene-Holocene bivalves and gastropods from the West Atlantic, finding no evidence of a significant association of the studied traits with increased extinction risk of the studied molluscs.[135]
- Kiel (2026) reports evidence from the study of extant and extinct molluscs from cold seep environments indicative of a dip of diversity of the studied mollucs from 200 to 1000 m depth in subtropical regions that persisted at least since Oligocene, interpreted as likely linked to presence of oxygen minimum zones.[136]
