THE SHELL-FISH OF THE COAST. 45 OYSTERS, SCALLOPS, MUSCLES, AND ARKS.
The oyster is so familiar to everybody that it scarcely needs description. Still, there are a num- ber of points connected with its structure and his- tory which may not be generally known, and may consequently be touched upon with advantage. In the first place, let it... be said that there are two gen- erally recognized species or varieties on our coast, — one known as the Virginia oyster, of an elongated form, and the other, deeply scalloped, the ITorthern oyster (Osirea borealis). But the shell of the oyster varies so greatly, depending for its form so much upon the shape of the object upon which it immov- ably attaches itself in later life, that it becomes a matter of great difficulty to determine the proper limits of specific variation ; and, indeed, as far as the two forms above noted are concerned, it is very doubtful if they do not in reality belong to a single species.
