[From Wikipedia]
Scallop is a common name that is primarily applied to any one of numerous species of saltwater clams or marine bivalve mollusks in the taxonomic family Pectinidae, the scallops. The common name "scallop" is also sometimes applied to species in other closely related families within the superfamily Pectinoidea.
Scallops are a cosmopolitan family of bivalves, found in all of the world's oceans, though never in freshwater. They are one of very few groups of bivalves to be primarily "free-living"; many species are capable of rapidly swimming short distances and even of migrating some distance across the ocean floor. A small minority of scallop species live cemented to rocky substrates as adults, while others are more simply attached by means of a filament they secrete called a byssal thread.](/proxy/post_attachment/127718/2a7ed09148.jpeg "My still life photograph of these Scallop shells and pearls (captured at my home in Sydney) immediately made me think of the wonderful song - \"Pearly Shells\" by Burl Ives >> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vsCA4Kskmjc or https://www.pinterest.com/pin/112027109458448611/
