''Pinctada albina'' is a species of Pearl oyster of the genus ''Pinctada'', known as the sharks bay shell. Another common name is the Arafura shell. It is called the "Amami gai" in Japan. ==Pinctada== ''Pinctada albina'' belongs to the genus, ''Pinctada''. These are saltwater clams, marine bivalve mollusks of the genus Pinctada in the family Pteriidae. They have a strong inner shell layer composed of nacre, also known as mother of pearl. Pearl oysters are not closely related to the edible oysters of family Ostreidae, and they are also not closely related to the freshwater pearl mussels of the families Unionidae and Margaritiferidae. Like other members of the genus, Pinctada, they share the physiological properties that can lead to the production of large pearls of commercial value, and therefore attempts have been made to harvest pearls commercially from many different Pinctada species.
