''Falcidens'' is one of three genera within the family
Chaetodermatida; its
radula consists of a single row of teeth which are
mineralized in crystalline
hydroxyapatite (a most unusual mineral in organisms), and its teeth are not periodically shed and replaced like in other
molluscs.
'' For details of the radula, see
Radula#In caudofoveates.''
