Burial behavior data of Corbicula largillierti

Individuals of Corbicula largillierti were manually collected between 0 and 1 m depth from "Los Chorrillos" stream, at the upper part Suquía River Basin (Córdoba, Argentina 31.399849° S; 64.509624° W) during December 2017. Burial behavior data of Corbicula largillierti after four and eight weeks at 20 and 30ºC. The burial degree was included (completely, partially, or not buried). When burial degree was "completely buried" the burial time was measured. Burial time is the period since the bivalve introduces its foot in the sediment and the valve is positioned perpendicular to the sediment surface until the posterior end of the valves reaches the level. Burial behavior was tested under four different granulometries: coarse sand (0.5 - 1 cm), thin sand (0.2 - 0.5 cm), fine sand (0.1 - 0.2 cm) and very fine sand (<0.1 cm). Morphometric parameters (shell length (mm), shell height (mm) and dry mass without shell (g)) of each individual is included.
