Abstract

P. viridis is distinguished from the other two species Perna, P. indica and P. canaliculus, by few physical features. Perna viridis begins its life as a juvenile with a green and blue-green shell that develops brown patches as an adult Internally, the exhalent siphon and the inner surfaces of the inhalant aperture are outlined with a stripe darker than the variably patterned dark brown mantle.
