Looking to see if anyone has a recent clam book that talks about Hippopus hippopus vs Hippopus porcellanus. My clam book was published in 1996. Looking for newer descriptions. My H.h looks to have a ring of tentacles around the intake syphon and rounded teeth which is a description for H.p... But i know H.p is extremely rare so I doubt it is an H.p

Any help out there?

None of the phone pics really show the tentacles very well..

My clam has the same tissue structure on the inhalant siphon.
