The value of the pearl oyster depends on the vagaries of fashion, Of ubalove shells there are three dfs- tinct varletles known to commerco—the blue-greea of Mexlco, the black of Cali- fornia, and the gray abalona common to the whole coast.

It 1s found clinging to clifts, reefs and submarine rocks throughout the comst of Mexlco from San Thomas, cloge to the American line, as far south as Acspulco. Blue- green abalones are gathered by mestizos and brought to Wilmington (San Pedro) by traders and fishermen. The Mexican abalove approximates in value the Shells of Tahitl., They are shipped to the same markets and are used in the same indus- trles.
