  • The outer surface<\/strong> bears numerous, prominent concentric growth striae<\/strong>, which become more pronounced near the posterior margins;<\/li>\n
  • The hinge of the left valve has one lateral tooth, while the right valve bears two lateral teeth<\/strong>;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    The pallial sinus is broad and relatively shallow<\/strong>, with a rounded shape at the anterior end.<\/p>\n

     <\/p>\n

    External and internal coloration<\/h3>\n

     <\/p>\n

    \"\"The external coloration ranges from<\/strong>:<\/p>\n

      \n
    • Brownish to light brown<\/strong>;<\/li>\n
    • Creamy white<\/strong>, from which the name White Clam derives.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      On the external shell<\/strong>, a broad dark brown band is often visible <\/strong>along the posterior dorsal margin. The inner surface is porcelain white.<\/p>\n

       <\/p>\n
