Micropilina

Micropilina is a genus of monoplacophoran mollusks, very small, mostly deepwater animals which have a superficially limpet-like shell. In addition to a number of living, deep-sea species, this genus also includes a shallow water fossil from the middle of Italy - and this is the only fossil representative of this lineage subsequent to the Devonian period.
