Cette demi coquille de Cardita sulcata est du Pliocène aussi bien Italien que du Bassin Parisien et d' ailleurs ce qui explique la suite. Elle est dite synonyme de Chama antiquata (Linné, 1758) ainsi que de Cardita antiquata var. elata (Bucquoy, Dautzenberg et Dollfus, 1892), Cardita antiquata var. pallidior (Bucquoy, Dautzenberg et Dollfus 1892), Cardita antiquata var. trapezoidea (Bucquoy, Dautzenberg et Dollfus, 1892), Cardita laxa (Locard, 1886), Chama intermedia (Brocchi, 1814), Chama pectinata (Brocchi, 1814), Chama rhomboidea (Brocchi,1814), Venericardia antiquata (Linnaeus, 1758), Venericardia antiquata trapezoidea (Bucquoy, Dautzenberg et Dollfus, 1892) et enfin reconnue par le Worms comme: Cardites antiquatus (Linnaeus, 1758). Personnellement je le trouve très ressemblant à Cardita salbriacensis mais pas à Cardites antiquatus!
This half shell Cardita sulcata is from Italian Pliocene as well as of Parisian Basin and also that which explains the later. It is synonymous Chama antiquata (Linnaeus, 1758) as well as Cardita antiquata var. elata (BUCQUOY, Dautzenberg and Dollfus, 1892), Cardita antiquata var. pallidior (BUCQUOY, Dautzenberg and Dollfus 1892), Cardita antiquata var. trapezoidea (BUCQUOY, Dautzenberg and Dollfus, 1892), Cardita laxa (Locard, 1886), Chama intermedia (Brocchi, 1814), Chama pectinata (Brocchi, 1814), Chama rhomboidea (Brocchi, 1814), Venericardia antiquata (Linnaeus, 1758) , Venericardia antiquata trapezoidea (BUCQUOY, Dautzenberg and Dollfus, 1892) and finally recognized in the Worms: Cardites antiquatus (Linnaeus, 1758). Personally I find it very similar to Cardita salbriacensis but not to Cardites antiquatus!
