Thraciidae is a family of small marine bivalves in the superorder Anomalodesmata. [1] [2] [3]
The following 16 genera are included in the family Thraciidae: [1]
Patellidae is a taxonomic family of true limpets, marine gastropod molluscs in the superfamily Patelloidea. (The superfamily Patelloidea should not be confused with the similar-sounding genus of true limpets Patelloida which is in the family Lottiidae within the superfamily Lottioidea, also part of the Patellogastropoda.)
Anomalodesmata is an superorder of saltwater clams, marine bivalve molluscs. This grouping was formerly recognised as a taxonomic subclass. It is called a superorder in the current World Register of Marine Species, despite having no orders, to parallel it with sister taxon Imparidentia, which does have orders.
Periplomatidae is a family of large marine bivalves of the Anomalodesmata order.
Myochamidae is a family of marine bivalves in the superorder Anomalodesmata. It includes both cementing and burrowing species.
Myadora striata is a species of marine bivalve mollusc in the family Myochamidae. It is endemic to New Zealand. It is common in the tidal zone of protected sandflats where it is found burrowing with its right, convex valve up. The left valve is flat. It is a large species within its genus.
Myadora boltoni is a marine bivalve mollusc of the family Myochamidae. It is endemic to New Zealand. It is common on protected sandflats.
Barythaerus biconvexus is a marine bivalve mollusc of the family Thraciidae. It is endemic to New Zealand.
Crassatellidae is a family of small saltwater clams, marine bivalve molluscs of the order Carditida.
Lodderena is a genus of minute sea snails or micromolluscs, marine gastropod molluscs, formerly in the family Skeneidae. Following a morphological reevaluation, it was excluded from Skeneidae and treated as incertae sedis within the superfamily Trochoidea.
Dilemma is a genus of marine bivalves of the family Poromyidae. The genus is remarkable for encompassing predators of isopods and ostracods, unusual for sessile molluscs. One species is known from the western Atlantic Ocean and three from across the Pacific. Specimens have been found at depths between 229–961 m (751–3,153 ft). The name of the genus refers to the dilemma that the author of the new genus faced while diagnosing it.
The Pectinoidea are a superfamily of marine bivalve molluscs, including the scallops and spiny oysters.
Rangia is a genus of bivalve molluscs or clams in the subfamily Mactrinae of the family Mactridae.
Codakia is a genus of saltwater clams, marine bivalve molluscs in the family Lucinidae.
Thracia is a genus of bivalve mollusc in the family Thraciidae.
Saccella is a genus of bivalves belonging to the family Nuculanidae.
Solamen is a genus of saltwater, brackish water and freshwater clams, marine bivalve molluscs in the subfamily Crenellinae of the family Mytilidae, the mussels.
Myllita stowei is a species of bivalve, a marine gastropod mollusc in the family Lasaeidae. It was first described as Pythina stowei by Frederick Wollaston Hutton in 1873, and recategorised as Myllita stowei in 1913 by Henry Suter. It is endemic to the waters of New Zealand.
Myochama is a genus of bivalves in the family Myochamidae. They are restricted to the waters off southeastern Australia and New Zealand.
Myadora is a genus of marine bivalves in the family Myochamidae. They are shallow-burrowing bivalves, able to burrow rapidly.
