关岛的海洋双壳类动物是新收集的，记录了339种。然而，关岛的动物群仍然不完全为人所知，据估计它的种类要丰富得多。中西部太平洋地区如此高的多样性表明，印度-西太平洋地区的双壳类生物多样性远高于之前的记录。翼形目和异齿目在关岛的动物群中占主导地位，而原枝目和异齿目只有四种。Galeommatids代表了物种最丰富的科，尽管它们在样本中并不常见。
The marine bivalves of Guam are documented from new collections and 339 species recorded. Nevertheless Guam's fauna remains imperfectly known and is estimated to be considerably more diverse. Such high diversity on a local scale in the west-central Pacific suggests that bivalve diversity in the Indo-west Pacific is much higher than previously recorded. Pteriomorphs and heterodonts dominate Guam's fauna, while protobranchs and anomalodesmatans comprise only four species. Galeommatids represent the most species rich family, even though they are uncommon in samples.
