Omg so cool! Thanks! I have two that I know of on my property. I loose track of their locations. I’ve read that they are often poached so I won’t disclose exact coordinates.
Also, there aren’t many iNatters in my area. I’m the only one for miles and miles.
Is this rare? It looks rare. https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/252940716
There is a map on every observation* that shows how many have been seen in the area.
*Fine, there are some exceptions, such as observations with private or missing locations.
Ok, thanks
I have dozens of one-of-a-kind mollusk observations but they are mostly very small species. They probably aren’t rare but they wouldn’t be spotted by a casual stroller on the beach.
On the other hand, these two Venerids are fairly large but no one else has posted an observation of them, so it is probably safe to conclude that they are rare.
