Ylistrum balloti, known as Ballot's saucer scallop is found around the waters of Australia. This scallop may live for a maximum of four years, and reach 14 cm in shell length, though more commonly 8 to 9 cm. Well regarded as seafood in Asia and Australia.[1][2][3]
Distribution and habitat

The Ballot's saucer scallop is highly available throughout the Australian coast.[4][5] A previous record from Indonesia was observed in 1991.[6] A recent report confirmed from Borneo island (Sarawak, Malaysia) suggested the range is expanding to the north.[7]
