It was with a view to test this that Panceri dissected out the luminous organs of so many specimens of Pholas.    From Wordnik.com.  [Young Folks' Library, Volume XI (of 20) Wonders of Earth, Sea and Sky] Reference

These species of Pholas have been found in the miocene of this, viz: P. Costata, P. Oblongata, and P. Memmingeri.    From Wordnik.com.  [Report of the North-Carolina Geological Survey. Agriculture of the Eastern Counties: Together with Descriptions of the Fossils of the Marl Beds] Reference

Among mollusks, the best known instance of phosphorescence is in the rock-boring Pholas, the luminosity of which after death is mentioned by Pliny.    From Wordnik.com.  [Young Folks' Library, Volume XI (of 20) Wonders of Earth, Sea and Sky] Reference

But it is not merely after death that Pholas becomes luminous -- a phenomenon perfectly familiar even in the case of many fish, especially the herring and mackerel.    From Wordnik.com.  [Young Folks' Library, Volume XI (of 20) Wonders of Earth, Sea and Sky] Reference

In Pholas the light is still more persistent, and it is found that when the dead body of this mollusk is placed in honey, it will retain for more than a year the power of emitting light when plunged in warm water.    From Wordnik.com.  [Young Folks' Library, Volume XI (of 20) Wonders of Earth, Sea and Sky] Reference

There is a paper by this author in the Mem. de I 'Acad, descrip - tive of a species of Pholas which he observed in tlie timber of ships in Senegal, and illustrated by very good figures of Teredo navalis and the Pholades.    From Wordnik.com.  [Transactions of the Linnean Society] Reference
