In 1758, in the 10th edition of Systema Naturae, the Swedish scientist and taxonomist Carl Linnaeus described the class "Vermes" as: Animals of slow motion, soft substance, able to increase their bulk and restore parts which have been destroyed, extremely tenacious of life, and the inhabitants of moist places. Many of them are without a distinct head, and most of them without feet. They are principally distinguished by their tentacles (or feelers).

Tellina es un género de moluscos bivalvos de concha fina, oval y deprimida del orden Veneroida. ​Son comunes en las costas de la península ibérica. Se encuentran frecuentemente en los fangos de marismas, zonas salobres y, sobre todo, en zonas de playa.
