Title Taxonomy of the blood clams Anadara (Tegillarca) granosa (Linnaeus, 1758) and A. (T.) Rhombea (Born, 1780)
 
Creator Narasimham, K A
 
Subject Clam
 
Description Descriptions of A. (T.) granosa and A. (R.) rhombea based on adequate material coming from
different localities along the Indian Coast and outside India are given. The differences beween these
two species are brought out. It was gathered that the specimens of A. (T.) granosa in the
Linnaean Society, London may not respresent the type material, but the specimen of this rpecies in
the Zoological Museum of the University of Uppsala, Sweden can reasonably be considered as
syntype.
