''Arca imbricata'', or the mossy ark clam, is a clam in the family Arcidae. It can be found along the Atlantic coast of North America, ranging from North Carolina to the West Indies, Brazil, and Bermuda.〔Abbott, R.T. & Morris, P.A. ''A Field Guide to Shells: Atlantic and Gulf Coasts and the West Indies.'' New York: Houghton Mifflin, 1995. 7.〕 ==Description== ''Arca imbricata'' grows to about 2 ins (5 cm) in length. The valves have a roughly rectangular shape with a rounded anterior end and a slightly pointed posterior end. They are usually purplish-white in colour, but live specimens are covered in a thin brown protective periostracum. There are some distinct ribs on the posterior end and the margin is smooth. The hinge is long and straight with a number of fine teeth.〔(Mossy Ark: Born to Shag ) Retrieved 2011-11-29.〕
