短齒蛤
Brachidontes variabilis
1/1
Commonly found attached to solid structures on shores, such as boulders and rock oysters.
可以利用足絲依附在沿岸的堅固結構上，例如巨石和岩牡蠣
Like the Black Mussel, they will attach and bind together on rocky substrate to form a mussel bed.
與其他貽貝一樣，短齒蛤經常在岩石結構上附著並聚集而形成「蛤床」（mussel bed）
Mussel beds create a complex structure allowing other intertidal species such as crabs to seek shelter and food.
結構複雜的「蛤床」能提供庇護所及附著表面予螃蟹或蛤貝等潮間帶物種
