| Description |
Brachidontes domingensis (Lamarck, 1819) - Domingo mussels encrusting intertidal-zone aragonitic limestone beachrock. These mussels are in the intertidal zone, resulting in regularly alternating marine submergence and subaerial exposure. Mussels are sessile, benthic, filter feeders having two aragonitic shells covered in an organic periostracum. They attach to hard substrates using byssal threads exuded from near the beak area of their shells. Classification: Animalia, Mollusca, Bivalvia, Mytilidae Locality: shoreline of southeastern Graham’s Harbour, northern margin of San Salvador Island, eastern Bahamas |
