Gigantidas platifrons is a deep-sea mussel that is common in hydrothermal vents and methane seeps in the Western Pacific Ocean. It is found in hydrothermal vents in the Okinawa Trough and cold seeps in Sagami Bay (Japan) and the South China Sea. Morever, it harbours methane-oxidizing bacteria in its gill, which help to transfer methane into material and energy to help it to thrive in such environments.
