Anomia (les anomies) est un genre de mollusques bivalves de la famille des Anomiidae. Le terme anomie (du grec ἀ- / a- « absence de » et νόμος / nómos « règle, structure ») renvoie à l'allure amorphe et variable du coquillage. L’anomie se fixe sur tout support solide : rocher, autres bivalves, gorgones, crampons de laminaires.

Anomia simplex, the common jingle shell, is a typical species of bivalve mollusc in the family of Anomiidae, sharing attributes to blue mussels, American oysters, and bay scallops. Species related to the family of Anomiidae are often noted for their extremely thin, often translucent, paper-like shells. Anomia simplex can be found in shallow waters, typically estuaries, mainly along the Atlantic Coast of North America; however, they can range as far north as the coast of Nova Scotia, and as far south as the coast of Brazil.
