Kevin, Pretostrea Iredale, 1939 has been used by Higo and Goto, 1993: A Systematic List of Molluscan Shells from the Japanese Islands and Adjacent Area, for P. imbricata, a common species here on Chejudo, Korea. Other authors use Hyotissa, and even Lopha. I am trying to find the correct genus for this species. I appreciate your assistance.
