Shell morphology of freshwater Corbicula specimens collected from Saga Prefecture, southern Japan was considerably different from that of C. leana Prime. The anterior lateral teeth (ALT) of the Saga specimens is narrow in width and sharp in ridge angle while that of C. leana collected in Mie is wide and blunt; mean ratio of basal width to height of ALT was 0.69 in Mie and 1.34 in Saga specimens. General morphological feature of the Saga specimens closely resembles that of a Chinese species C. fluminea (Mueller) collected from Taiwan. Further studies on such as mode of reproduction, chromosome number in Corbicula species should be required for specific identification
