About Chione
Chione is a genus of common, edible marine bivalve molluscs, in the family Veneridae, which arose in the early Miocene or Late Eocene in the tropical Western Atlantic region. Species of the genus are today distributed across the Western Atlantic, Pacific and Indian Oceans. Some members of the genus were amongst the first animals to be scientifically classified. Others have been a significant food source for indigenous people. They are the most common bivalves, both living and fossil, in Florida.
