a mussel with a golden yellow shell and a mantle that looks sort of like a small tasty fish, complete with eyes and tail fin
Lampsilis cariosa - yellow lampmussel (2021)
These freshwater mussels lure in unsuspecting host fishes with their mimicry, and then blast them in the face with parasitic larvae. Pretty neat for an otherwise assuming, sessile, filter feeder!

Lots of Duck Mussels (Anodonta anatina) in the Little Ouse downstream of Lakenheath Fen. The relatively long incurrent siphon (the frilly one) shows this live one is a Duck Mussel.
Also plenty roving Lister's River-Snails
(Viviparus contectus).

We evaluated effectiveness of eDNA metabarcoding of #FreshwaterMussel communities based on previous conventional sampling methods.
Spoiler: eDNA metabarcoding agreed with conventional surveys but also detected rare species.

Top row: Painter's Mussel (Unio pictorum), so called as shells were used to hold paint.
Not sure about other live freshwater mussel?
Assume oyster shell has washed out of ancient midden.
