| Abstract |
From recent surveys and a review of previous studies a list of 214 species of marine bivalves collected on the shores of Kuwait is presented. For each there are illustrations and citations from past studies. Species are included only if they could be verified from specimens or high-quality images. The absence of species previously recorded, and the unique elements of the bivalve fauna are briefly discussed. |
