“Oblong, rather elevated, carinated, with nearly straight side: 
slopes; surface smoothish to the naked eye, lusterless, and in 
color (1) olive-green with some lighter spots, or purplish macula- 
tion, or slight roseate suffusion, or (2) vivid red, with scattered 
blue spots. Valves shaped as in M. lignosa, but without a me- 
dian anterior projection of the tegmentum; the intermediate: 
valves very faintly radially trisulcate at the sides, the anterior 
2 grooves defining the low, slight and inconspicuous diagonal rib, 
the lateral areas not raised; entire surface very finely and evenly 
granulate, the granules small, rather pointed, separated, intervals: 
very minutely, radially wrinkle-granulate. Anterior valve with 
a few faint, shallow radial furrows. Posterior valve with semi- 
circular posterior outline, the mucro in front of the middle of 
tegmentum, profile of the surface in front of it convex, that of the 
posterior slope decidedly concave. Interior deep rose color or 
slightly purplish; sutural laminze and sinus about as in lignosa. 
Teeth rather long and somewhat roughened, as in lignosa. Valve 
i with 8 slits; ii-vii with 1-1; valve viii entirely ‘‘Ischnoid,’’ with 
regular, crescentic insertion plate, cut by 7 or 8 slits, which are 
somewhat closer posteriorly; no sinus behind. Girdle leathery,. 
nude except for solitary or 2 or 3 closely grouped long bristles at 
all or part of the sutures, 1 on each side of the head valve, and 2 
behind the tail valve. Gills about 25 on each side, not extending” 
quite to the anterior end of the foot. Length 25, width 12 mm.

“General form oblong, rather depressed, not keeled dorsally; 
surface granulose when not eroded. Color blackish or dark 
brown, with a whitish band on each side of the median line of 
back, or irregular whitish maculation; girdle dark. Intermedi- 
ate valves short and wide, with a slight or hardly noticeable de- 
pression on each side of the jugum, and others in front of and be- 
hind the scarcely defined, obsolete, diagonal convexity; the ante- 
rior and posterior margins subparallel, slightly arcuate. Ante- 
rior valve granulate, without radial ribs, the posterior margin ex- 
cavated mesially. Posterior valve with tegmentum slightly wider’ 
than the anterior, the obtuse mucro somewhat behind the middle. 
Interior blue-green, with the area behind the valve-callus dark 
brown, or livid purplish, with light sutural lamine and blue-green. 
area behind the sinus. Slits in valve i, 9 or 10; valves ii to vii, 
1-1; valve viii, 10 or 11. Teeth rather separated, those of valve i 
unedual, slightly rugose outside; posterior tooth of valves ii to vii 
small, very obliquely directed forward; teeth of valve viii very 
short, strongly directed forward and roughened. Sinus wide and 
square, spongy, the area behind it transversely grooved. Eaves 
rather wide, ‘“‘spongy’’ or porous. Girdle sparsely covered with 
short, rigid, obtuse, glossy spines of a blackish-brown color, or 
occasionally some are whitish. Gills in type specimen, 26 on left, 
23 on right side; not quite reaching the anterior end of the foot. 
In another there are 23 on left, 25 on right side. Length 15,, 
breadth 8 mm. or smaller.’’—Pilsbry, l. c. 289.
