Molluscoida was the name formerly used to denote a division of the animal kingdom which contained Brachiopods, Bryozoans, and Tunicates, the members of the three groups having been supposed to resemble the Molluscs. As it is now known that these groups have no relation to molluscs, and very little to one another, the name Molluscoida has been abandoned.
