Bali Clams (Bivalvia)

This page links to photos of clams (phylum Mollusca, class Bivalvia) that we have photographed on dive trips to Bali, Indonesia. Clams make up a fairly large group and we did not specifically seek out clams to photograph, so this page represents only a small sample of the species that would be expected to live in the area. Many of the IDs are tentative. We welcome corrections at uwkwaj@yahoo.com.
