Dear Franck,

Thanks for your information. The pectinids of the unlocalized sample are
Volachlamys tranquebaria (Gmelin, 1791). This species is distributed from
India eastwards to the southern region of the South China Sea. Thailand is
an option, but I am not sure if the locality "Corenguy" could be similar to
Ko(h) Rang. The material is about 70 years old.

Best wishes,

Henk
