Tridacna gigas
Giant Clam fossil Wiki - the largest living bivalve mollusc. T. gigas is one of the most endangered clam species.
Spotted 5M in Mel-let Cave (Nalsoc Cave System). Newly discovered cave & named using the Ilocano word for Giant Clam. Elevation = 127 MASL, 1.4 KM from South China Sea in Brgy. Colayo, Bani, Pangasinan
ID to species by Jess Vicente. Photo by Jerry Rendon.
Blogie: 2 photos added, one from the same spotting & one from an earlier spotting of the same fossil.
Nice photo, BalincaguinConservancy. It would be even nicer if there was a close-up shot of the clam. :)

Posting an inquiry here because the chat options at the bottom of the page no longer show. How do I get the chat options back?
