Resumen
The World Register of Marine Species (WoRMS) currently
registers all Pacific cupped oysters that were formerly members
of the genus Crassostrea in a new genus, Magallana. Magallana
gigas is designated as an ‘‘accepted name,’’ whereas a search for
Crassostrea gigas results in the message ‘‘no matching results
found.’’ This has caused dismay among many biologists,
aquaculturists, and other stakeholders with an interest in the
Pacific and other oysters. This note, which is authored by 27
interested scientists, presents a dissenting view and a rebuttal of
the proposed change of genus.
