Shell small, up to 32 mm high, most specimens c. 20 mm ; rather thin, circular to ovate, flattened (left valve almost flat, right valve weakly inflated), inequivalve, almost equilateral, auricles unequal in shape and size, umbonal angle c. 85–95°; left valve brightly coloured with white, red, yellowish or brown blotches, right valve paler. Both valves sculptured with almost obsolete, evenly spaced radial costae and minute, closely spaced commarginal striae continuing across costae throughout. Auricles with only commarginal microsculpture, as on disc. Weak internal expressions of external radial costae with sharply raised edges near ventral margin, but not carinate. Functional right and left ctenolia very weak or even lacking. Byssal notch and fasciole absent. Resilium oblong and oblique. Dimensions . Illustrated specimens: QLD, GBR, NE of Cairns , 55 m , two unmatched valves ( AM C.157660): rv: H 14.8, L 14.5 mm ; lv: H 19.3, L 18.5 mm ; QLD, GBR, Keeper Reef , off Townsville , 43 m ( AM C.338776): lv: H 20.6, L 20.8 mm . Iredale (1939: 368) stated the dimensions of the holotype of Juxtamusium oblectatum as H 22.5, L 22, D 6 mm . Habitat . Living in the intertidal to sublittoral zones amongst coral rubble or algae on flat sandy bottoms. Distribution . Throughout the tropical Indo-West Pacific from the Philippines to northern Australia and westwards to the central Indian Ocean (not recorded from the western Indian Ocean), and eastwards to the Fiji Islands (Raines & Poppe, 2006: 126); Philippines , 20–80 m ( Raines, 2010: 608 ); Philippines , 12–20 m ; Marshall Islands , 45–54 m ; Indonesia , Papua , 2 m ; New Caledonia , 7–22 m , Palau Islands , 45–54 m (Waller, 1972: 254 [as Juxtamusium oblectatum ]; Papua New Guinea , 20–35 m (Dijkstra, 1998a: 22). Maximum depth range of live-taken specimens is from the intertidal zone to 75 m . Present specimens from Australia alive at 12– 36 m . Remarks . The present specimens are indistinguishable from the type material of Juxtamusium coudeini . The closely related, smaller congener Juxtamusium maldivense ( Smith , 1903 ) differs somewhat in having more prominent radial sculpture, which is more unevenly spaced, and in having more persistent ctenolia.
