A group of homologous, nonmethylene-interrupted dienoic fatty acids (NMID) recently reported in oysters has been found in several other shellfish species and also in other marine phyla. The distribution of most other "normal" fatty acids among several species of shellfish is basically similar but mantle lipids from two other molluscan species, both squid, differ radically. The squid mantle fatty acids do not include NMID, suggesting that in molluscs NMID may accumula-e primarily in filter-feeders or herbovores. The distribution of these anomalous fatty acid components in higher species suggests that they reflect invertebrates in the diet and are biochemically inert.
最近在牡蛎中发现的一组同源、非亚甲基间断二烯酸（NMID），在其他几种贝类物种以及其他海洋门类中也有发现。大多数其他“正常”脂肪酸在几种贝类物种中的分布基本相似，但另外两种软体动物（均为鱿鱼）的外套膜脂质却有根本差异。鱿鱼外套膜脂肪酸中不包括NMID，这表明在软体动物中，NMID可能主要积累在滤食性动物或草食性动物体内。这些异常脂肪酸成分在高等物种中的分布表明，它们反映了饮食中的无脊椎动物，并且在生物化学上是惰性的。
