Re: tiny mussel
Hello Pierre,
You are correct ! it is Isognomonidae specie, it might be I. nucleus (Lamarck, 1819) which is found in Philippines or it could be I. acutirostris (Dunker, 1812) which can be found in E.asia - W. Pacific. I.nucleus size range is 15mm. & I.acutirostris is 17mm. this 2 might be one of the specie i've post, I just need more help in distinguishing this two specie, i cant determine if the crenelated tooth are determining factors to identify this specie.

Here are two photo samples of the one i post :
