Any one of numerous species of marine bivalve mollusks of
the genus Pecten and allied genera of the family Pectinidae. The shell
is usually radially ribbed, and the edge is therefore often undulated
in a characteristic manner. The large adductor muscle of some the
species is much used as food. One species (Vola Jacobaeus) occurs on

a mark that they had been to the Holy Land. Called also fan shell. See
