The present paper is based on periodical samples of the razor-shell, Solen
kempi, obtained for a period of about 21 months in 1960-61 from Gav-khadi
near Ratnagiri where it forms fairly productive beds which are regularly
fished by the local people chiefly for culinary purpose. Besides Gav-khadi,
only in a few other places like Ganpatiphoola and Devgod in Ratnagiri
District there exist minor beds of Sokn. But by transplantation of the
clams from these beds to areas where similar environmental conditions
exist it is possible to increase the resources several times to meet the
prevailing demand. In the following account an attempt is made to furnish
particulars of the existing conditions of the fishery along with information
on taxonomy and some aspects of biology of the species.
