Description:

"Large trough shell 70 - 95mm Maybe these are all murchisoni, however many times I sort them. "" Mactra discors was not found in Pegasus Bay during dredge surveys in 1991... and 2008..."" http://www.nabis.govt.nz/Documents/Annual%20distribution%20of%20Trough%20shell%20Lineage.pdf Only Mactra discors recorded in New Brighton in 1929. ""quite common"" NatureWatch NZ is entirely to blame for the state of this coffee table.
