Endangered Where Listed: WHEREVER FOUND General Information Shell surface: Many low, wide bumps run in a single file line down the outer shell surface, from the beak (the swelling above the point where the 2 shell halves join) to the opposite shell edge.
The rest of the shell surface is smooth (without bumps), and looks slightly pressed-in from the beak to the shell edge (similar to the pressed-in mark the length of your finger would make on wet clay), parallel to the row of bumps. Young mussels may have 2 raised ridges (one on either side of the pressed-in mark).
The species historical range included Alabama, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Minnesota, Mississippi, Missouri, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Virginia, West Virginia, Wisconsin. See below for information about where the species is known or believed to occur.
