Pinna nobilis, Latinitate classica pina,Cic. fin. 3.63; Plin. nat. 9.115; 32.150. (Graece ) est species magnorum bivalvium marinorum familiae Pinnidarum. Ea est in Mari Mediterraneo endemica, et ante litus ad 20 m habitare mavult.

Testa, cuius forma variat, ad 91 cm longa crescere potest. Quae, sicut testae omnium Pinnidarum, fragilis est. Interiora luculenta naccara teguntur.Tyndale 1849: 77–79.

Animal se ad saxa bysso adligat, qui fons byssini (vel "serici marini") est, textilis quod olim ex bysso effectum est.Hill 2009: 468–476.

Annis recentioribus, Pinna nobilis paene exstincta est propter nimium piscatum — quod enim molluscum edule est — et deminutionem agrorum graminis marini et pollutionem circumiectus.Hill 2009: 468–476.
