Spencer Utting, S. D .,and Spencer, B. E. 1992. Introductions of marine bivalve molluscs into the United Kingdom for commercial culture - case histories. - ICES mar. Sei SvmD 194:84-91. P’’ Most introductions of non-indigenous bivalves into UK coastal waters have been deliberate and all have involved species of commercial value. The introduction of Mercenaria mercenaria, whether deliberate or accidental, remains subject to specu­ lation. Imports of live oysters from Europe and the USA, which probably began in the 1870s. continued until 1962 when trade in live oysters had declined. Ostrea edulis seed for relaying was imported from France and Holland in quantities that ranged from less than 100 t year 1 to 1100 t y e a r'1. Crassostrea virginica seed was imported from America and Canada until 1939, to be replaced by Crassostrea angulata from Portugal which had been imported since 1926. Imports of seed Crassostrea spp. never exceeded 300 t year . Before the 1960s the deposit of imported species was not controlled to prevent the introduction of pests, parasites, and diseases. Legislation, codes of practice, and guidelines have since controlled the introduction, deposit, and release into the wild of non-indigenous bivalves in UK territorial waters. As a result of this, and the availability of seed from UK hatcheries since the 1960s, no new pests, etc.' have been introduced with seed of non-indigcnous species.
