The bivalve species Glycymeris bimaculata (Poli 1795), G. glycymeris (Linnaeus 1758) and G. violacescens (Lamarck 1819) of the family Glycymerididae (Pteriomorpha) are reviewed. Literature citations, specimens deposited in collections, and unpublished data were consulted. For each species the valid name, synonyms for the Adriatic Sea, shell sizes, general and eastern Adriatic distribution, collection depths, habitat and bioceonological characters, ecological significance, abundance, bivalve collections and additional relevant data are recorded. The results are discussed, and further study of certain species suggested.
