Kono Clams (Austrovenus stutchburyi) are known in New Zealand as cockles, tuangi or tuaki. Known internationally as the littleneck clam, cockle clam or Pacific clam. They are valued by the hospitality industry for their versatility and taste.

Our clams are native to the Southern Hemisphere. They grow in harbours and intertidal areas throughout New Zealand.
