Nr 1: some kind of Veneridae, probably Marcia marmorata or Marcia japonica

Nr 2: Meropesta nicobarica http://bigai.world.coocan.jp/pic_book/data12/r001114.html

aim inclinate of marcia marmorata  gracias

I see you fixed the pictures. Now Meropesta nicobarica is the last picture and the picture 2 looks for me like Mya arenaria too.

I have two photos of the same name but they do not seem that you would say about them

These two shells belong to the family Veneridae. There are likely 2 different species on the picture, but I can't identify ether of them more exactly.

The last one looks like an Asaphis (Psammobiidae). Perhaps A. violaceus (Forskall 1775)

Asaphis violaceus was also my first guess, but after some research I settled for Meropesta nicobarica based on shell sculpture, thickness and bending of the valves.

To be really sure, we'd have to see the inside of the shell to be able to compare the hinges, as they are completely different for those two species.

Asaphis not think it is by qeu i have several different copies of it but if they want to make a scanner on the internal parts for exhibition

Don't think its Asaphis either, but if you want to be really sure you can post a picture of the interior (especially the hinge is important).

if not better appreciate the picture?

Regarding the last picture: now that the interior is visible, it is clearly not a Dosinia, but a species of the family Lucinidae, probably Lucinoma borealis (Linnaeus, 1767).

By the way the last picture belongs into another topic.
