Hi,could be on the left a oyster like spondylus,and on the right a clamshell?

The right is about 5cm and the left is 4cm.

It's hard to distinguish any features here. I think you'll need to take more photos, with better lighting, for identification. A size reference could help, also.

I think you could be right on this. It looks to be some broken spines on the surface of the left specimen, and on the right seems to be no evidence of spines, so, I think the specimen on right could be a shell of a pectinid. It's hard to conclude with only one picture and a strong altering of the original state.
