Scallops are bivalve (double-shelled) mollusks, not fish. Think of the Shell oil sign; that's a scallop shell.

Sometimes circular bits of meat cut from stingray wings are sold as scallops, but that is not as common as it used to be. A2 Although it is indeed not a fish in the biological sense it nonetheless falls into a category (along with clams, crabs, shrimp and other edible marine life) designated as "shellfish". This designation is used by the general public as well as the fisheries industry and government fisheries regulating agencies.
