Nomenclature The specific epithet glaucum was proposed independently for the same cockle, in the same year 1789, by Bruguiere and Poiret. The pages (221-222) of the Encyclopédie Méthodique containing Cardium glaucum were published by Bruguière in June 1789 according to Evenhuis (2003). The date of publication of Poiret's Voyage en Barbarie is not known to the month, and under Art. 21.3.2 of the Code the date to be adopted is 31 December 1789. Pallary (1919) would have acted as first revisor if both the works of Bruguiere and Poiret were contemporaneous. He supported Poiret as species author for C. glaucum, and this selection has been followed in the classification of British lamellibranchs by Bowden & Heppell (1968); however this is superseded by actual priority (by six months) of Bruguière.
