''Pholas dactylus'' or common piddock is a bioluminescent clam-like species of marine mollusc found on the coasts of the North Atlantic and the Mediterranean Sea. It bores into gneiss. It was once a highly esteemed food in Europe. 〔 Gofas, S. (2012). (Pholas dactylus Linnaeus, 1758 ). Accessed through: World Register of Marine Species at on 2012-02-23 〕 It is sensitive to light, retracting into its shell when exposed to it. ==Ancient history== Pliny spoke of luminescence in the mouths of people who ate ''Pholas'', the rock-boring shell-fish, and of such importance is this phenomenon that it is even said to have gained the first king of Scotland his throne.〔() Author: Field Naturalists' Club of Victoria, Volume: v.21, 1904-1905, Subject: Natural history; Natural history, Publisher: () Field Naturalists Club of Victoria, Year: 1884, Possible copyright status: NOT_IN_COPYRIGHT, page 93〕
