Taxonomic Revision of Jingle Shells: Resurrecting and Reclassifying Species of Anomiidae (Bivalvia: Pectinida). [PDF]
Ecol EvolThe family Anomiidae exhibits taxonomic ambiguity due to high morphological plasticity and overlapping diagnostic traits. In this study, we resurrect two anomiid species, Heteranomia aculeata and Pododesmus glaucus, and reclassify Isonomia umbonata as ...

One becomes three: An integrative morphological and molecular analysis of the windowpane oyster Placuna (Bivalvia: Pectinida) reveals new species. [PDF]
Ecol EvolFor decades, many marine animals have been considered to exhibit cosmopolitan or transoceanic distribution. This situation is prevalent in Asia, where many species were collected and named by American or European experts in the 1700s to early 1900s ...

The genome sequence of the variegated scallop, Mimachlamys varia (Linnaeus, 1758). [PDF]
Wellcome Open Res, 2023 We present a genome assembly from an individual Mimachlamys varia (the variegated scallop; Mollusca; Bivalvia; Pectinida; Pectinidae). The genome sequence is 975.4 megabases in span. Most of the assembly is scaffolded into 19 chromosomal pseudomolecules.

Molecular characterization of accripin11, a soluble shell protein with an acidic C-terminus, identified in the prismatic layer of the Mediterranean fan mussel Pinna nobilis (Bivalvia, Pteriomorphia). [PDF]
FEBS Open Bio, 2023 Accripin11, a novel 11 kDa protein exhibiting a peculiar cysteine pattern and an acidic disordered C‐terminus, was identified in the outer shell layer of the Mediterranean fan mussel, Pinna nobilis. It is a member of a protein family restricted to Pteriomorphia bivalves. Accripin11 interacts with the precipitation of CaCO3 and is presumably involved in
