摘要

Abstract

Four species new to science were identified in the Tellinidae museum collections in the Marine Biological Museum of Chinese Academy of Sciences.

Pinguitellina

triquetra

sp. nov.

collected in 1981

has not previously been described or reported. It differs from other

Pinguitellina

species by its trigonal shape

rose-colored valve interior

and deep and wide pallial sinus

which is confluent with the pallial line.

Pinguitellina

protuberangla

sp. nov. has a broad and deep dorsal corner

short and straight posterodorsal margin

comparatively large adductor scars

depressed and fragile shells

and deep socket at the anterior edge of the right valve.

Pinguitellina

minuta

sp. nov. was previously misidentified as

Arcopella casta

in China. It is a new species based on its unique characteristics

which include small

fragile

inflated

translucent

and triangularly ovate-shaped shells with acuminated and convex umboes. As the first species described in China within the genus

Abranda

Iredale

1924

Abranda xui

sp. nov. has internal ligaments and thin

fragile

and translucent elliptical shells with fine radials on the surface. In this study

we reorganized the species currently contained in the two genera

Pinguitellina

and

Abranda

and created keys to the known species. We believe that numerous collected bivalve specimens have been overlooked in the South China Sea

and to date

mollusk has not been adequately sampled. Thus

further exploration and analysis are required to understand species diversity in this area.
