FIGURES 46–53 in A remarkable new genus of carnivorous, sessile bivalves (Mollusca: Anomalodesmata: Poromyidae) with descriptions of two new species
FIGURES 46–53. Dilemma spectralis. Holotype, gross anatomy, major organs and anatomical structures. 46. Posterior view. 47. Anterior view with anterior mantle wall removed. 48–49. Left lateral views. 48. With part of mantle wall removed. 49. Tilted 30º to allow viewing of fused mantle margins and some septal ostia. 50. Right lateral view with part of mantle wall removed. 51. Detail of right side of supraseptal chamber showing internal tentacles anterior to excurrent siphons. 52. Detail of right side of septum around byssal opening showing three groups of septal ostia. 53. Detail of mouth area showing labial palps. Note small posterior labial palps and position of foot extremity in relation to mouth. Scale bars: Figure 46 = 3 mm; Figures 51, 52 = 2 mm; Figure 53 = 1 mm.
