The Kachchh basin is known world over for its rich occurrence of the Middle to Late Jurassic mollusks. The Middle Jurassic sediments in Kachchh range in age from Bajocian (possibly Aalenian) to Callovian. Amongst the Middle Jurassic benthic communities of Kachchh, the pholadomyoid bivalves are one of the dominant groups in both diversity and number. These are represented by 13 genera and 30 constituent species. Distribution of these bivalves was much affected by the evolutionary history of the basin which has been created due to inundation by Tethys sea owing to the opening of Arabian sea sometime in Middle Jurassic. By and large these fauna are typical of the southern Hemisphere and belonged to east African biochore of the Tethyan realm or to the so called Ethiopian faunal province. Analyzing the (palaeo-) autecological behavior of the studied pholadomyoid bivalves and their distribution pattern, an attempt has been made to ascertain the usefulness of these pholadomyoids in evaluating the Middle Jurassic paleobiogeography.
