What Is A Mussel

Mussel is the common name used for members 

of several families of clams or bivalvia mollusca,

 from saltwater and freshwater habitats. 

These groups have in common a shell whose outline is elongated

 and asymmetrical compared with other edible clams,

 which are often more or less rounded or oval.

The word "mussel" is most frequently used to mean the edible bivalves 

of the marine family Mytilidae, most of which live on exposed shores

 in the intertidal zone, attached by means of their strong byssal threads

 ("beard") to a firm substrate. 

A few species (in the genus Bathymodiolus) 

have colonised hydrothermal vents associated with deep ocean ridges.

In most marine mussels the shell is longer than it is wide, 

being wedge-shaped or asymmetrical.

The external colour of the shell is often dark blue, 

blackish, or brown, while the interior is silvery and somewhat nacreous.

The common name "mussel" is also used for many freshwater bivalves,

 including the freshwater pearl mussels.

 Freshwater mussel species inhabit lakes, ponds, 

rivers, creeks, canals, and they are classified in a different subclass 

of bivalves, despite some very superficial similarities in appearance.
