Laevichlamys wilhelminae (Bavay,
1904)
19.1mm
This
small, thin-shelled pecten with only fine ribs is found in lagoon Halimeda
algae patches as well as under rocks on lagoon pinnacles and the seaward reef.
It is reported to be variable in color, but we are not certain all our specimens
figured below fall into this species.
