NoteF++. COLORFUL BEAUTY IN A COMMON SCALLOP. In collections of European mussels, the drawers of Aequipecten opercularis always receive special attention: this mussel has everything to please. One particular shape crops up regularly: Shells with a dark line on the top of the ribs. This variant was already referred to as "lineatus" at the end of the 18th century: by da Costa. Here are three different forms of lineatus, none of which are easy to obtain or classic. Above, a lineatus doubled with a yellow sunray pattern. On the right a lineatus with an orange-brown ground color, and on the left a lineatus in violet, with a sudden thickening of the line pattern at the edge. An ensemble of rare colors is hard to find. France. Brittany. Bay of St. Brieuc. Trawled by fishermen in the bay. 20-40 m. 2018. #1182312
