Can anyone shoot the names of some target species of the Indo-Pacific my way
for my research paper? I refer to those that would be targeted commercially
and by local fishermen for food and/or deco. Tridacnids are a given, but
any others in particular that are exploited or have been in the past would
be great to know... any particular Murex? Are there any that aren't used
for food but are solely exploited for the shell curio trade?
Thanks.
