Academics say the specimens , nicknamed Punk and Emo, have led them to rethink long-held views.
Scientists have unearthed two 430 million-year-old fossils which they say challenge previously held views on the origins of molluscs.
Academics said the find had challenged the belief that early molluscs, from a group known as Aculifera, were basic and primitive creatures.Dr Mark Sutton / Imperial College LondonUniversity of Leicester palaeontologist Dr David Siveter was part of an international team that found the fossils.The findings have been published in the journal Nature.
"Punk in particular, with its spiky appearance, clearly resembles a rebellious punk rocker and we thought Emo complemented it well.""We have limited information about this group, and for a very long time, we assumed they were rather basic, simple and primitive.
