Abstract
An examination of fossil and Recent right valves of the infaunal, suspensionfeeding Corbula gibba (Olivi, 1792) revealed the presence of a slender, sub- conical, unbranched boring. The boring is interpreted as the work of a commensal organism, possible a parasite. Stratigraphic range is from Eocene to Recent.
期刊介绍:
The Bulletin publishes contributions of international interest in all fields of geological sciences on results of new work on material from Denmark, the Faroes and Greenland. Contributions based on other material may also be submitted to the Bulletin if the subject is of relevance for the geology of the area of primary interest.
