Lyle and Charlie,
I have a few from Melbourne, Florida which I would be willing also to
exchange a few that I collected there for NC and PA specimens.

Lyle,
Sounds like you found Corbicula fluminea (Muller, 1774). This is an
introduced bivalve. If you are interested, I would be willing to exchange
2 or 3 from here (PA) with some of yours. Let me know.

Regards,
Charlie
