  • About

Family Mytilidae

REMARKS The bluish-black mussel shells clinging in clusters to rocks are familiar to all. But the ones which you buy have probably clung in clusters to ropes hanging in or stakes planted in sea water in mussel ‘farms’. Length up to 15 cm. It is often difficult to distinguish this species from the (usually) slimmer M. edulis, found spottily in the western basin of the Mediterranean.
