DISTRIBUTION, ABUNDANCE, AND BIOMASS OF BIVALVES The distribution of bivalves of the southeastern Bering Sea shelf was incompletely known before Outer Continental Shelf Environmental Assessment Program (OCSEAP) investigations. Past investigations of Bering Sea bivalves were centered primarily in the vicinity of the Gulf of Anadyr (see Feder et al. 1977 for literature review). Recent investigations of the infauna, including studies of bivalve mollusks (Stoker 1978, Haflinger 1978, McLaughlin 1963, Rowland 1973) from the southeastern and northeastern Bering Sea, are also available. Rowland (1973) includes a discussion of the distribution of clams in relation to sediment parameters. Methods Samples were collected by van Veen grab from the NOAA ships Discoverer and Miller Freeman in 1975 (Feder et al. 1980, Feder and Jewett 1980), otter trawl from the Miller Freeman in 1975 and 1976, clam dredge from F/V Smaragd in 1977, and pipe dredge ( X m) in 1976 from the Miller
