Abstract
The littleneck clam, a member of the family Veneridae, is a hardshell species found in estuaries, bays, sloughs, and open coastl ines along the Pacific coast. This clam primarily inhabits the intertidal zone, but also occurs in subtidal areas (Hancock et ale 1979). It ranges from the Aleutian Islands to Socorro Island, r,1exico (Fraser and Smith 1928; Fitch 1953). It is commercially important only in Br{tish Columbia and Washington, where it is a highly regarded table item (Goodwin 1971).
