Description
The scallop, also called onomelium (Anomia ephippium), is a mussel species of the order Pectinida. It also occurs on the German North Sea coast. Their two German names are derived from the differently pronounced shell flaps: The right is saddle-shaped indented and the left leafy structure - like the shells of an onion.
