Abstract

Mussels, clams, oysters and scallops all belong to the Phylum Mollusca. Listed under this phylum are six classes one of which is Lamellibranchiata or Bivalvia to which the former belong(23). Although there are over 7,000 species of bivalves. The more important ones are fished extensively, are cultured or have culture potential for human consumption. These are found in several families and the more common ones are (Figure 32-01):

  • Mytilidae to which the mussels belong

  • Ostreidae which include various oysters

  • Pectinidae under which scallops are classified, and

  • Other families that include what is commonly called the “clams”.
