Comments: The southern boundary of Crassostrea virginica in the Atlantic can only be verified to the Yucatan<br />

Peninsula (Eastern Oyster Biol. Rev. Team, 2007). The only wild population in the NEP is in Boundary Bay, Canada<br />

(Coan et al., 2000). C. virginica was introduced into Japan though its locations and establishment are not known.<br />
