芒蛤科(学名:Solemyidae),又名蛏螂科,是雙殼綱原鳃亚纲芒蛤目之下的一個科,其物種皆為海洋蛤蜊類動物[2][3]。 目录 1 生物學 2 屬與種 3 参考文献 4 外部連結 生物學 本科物種的消化管道 are remarkable in that their digestive tract is either extremely small or non-existent, and their feeding appendages are too short to reach outside the shell.[4] It has been shown that these clams host sulphur-oxidizing bacteria intracellularly within their gill filaments. As chemoautotrophs, these bacterial symbionts synthesize organic matter from CO2 and are the primary source of nutrition for the whole organism.[5][6] In turn, the animal host provides its symbionts a habitat in which they have access to the substrates of chemoautotrophy (O2, CO2, and reduced inorganic compounds such as H2S). Together, these partners create "animals" with novel metabolic capabilities. 屬與種 芒蛤科包括以下兩個屬的各個物種: 矩蛏螂属 Acharax Dall, 1908[7] Acharax alinae Métivier & Cosel, 1993 Acharax bartschii (Dall, 1908) Acharax caribbaea (Vokes, 1970) Acharax clarificata Dell, 1995 Acharax gadirae Oliver, Rodrigues & Cunha, 2011 Acharax grandis (Verrill & Bush, 1898) 詹氏矩蛏螂 Acharax johnsoni (Dall, 1891) Acharax patagonica (E.
