Type Material: Holotype - BM(NH) 1950.11.14.8. Type Locality: China Sea.
Original Description: "Pect. testa oblongo-orbiculari, subaequilatera, peculiariter compressa, valva superiore planata, inferiore subconvexa, ambabus radiatim costatis, costis quatuordecim, rotundatis, sulcosis, squamis minimis per quatuor series longitudinales in costis dispositis, costarum interstitiis profunde excavatis, transversim striatis, vix auriculis inaequalibus; intense aurantia, luteo et violaceo maculata." (fide Adams & Reeve, 1850)
Additional Description: Extremely variable in coloration with 12 to 14 well defined ribs, which are striated and scabrous. Can be easily distinguished from Anguipecten superbus (G. B. Sowerby II, 1842) which is much larger and has 20-24 ribs that are quite smooth. Size: Normal adult size range is 40 to 50 mm.
Distribution: Found throughout the western Indo-Pacific region, including Japan, Reunion Island and northern Zululand, South African.
Habitat: Littoral zone, under or near rocks, coral boulders or coral rubble on sandy bottoms.
Remarks: Formerly known as A. aurantiacus (Adams & Reeve, 1850). It was determined that the species name had been preoccupied many times.
Relevant Literature: Adams & Reeve, 1848-1850; Dijkstra, 1984a; Dijkstra, 1991b; Dijkstra, 1995a; Dijkstra, 1998a; Matsumoto & Hayami, 2000; Dijkstra & Kilburn, 2001.
