Bibliography on pearl oysters
The preparation of this preliminary list was undertaken to meet the needs of the present investigation of the Pearl Banks, Gulf of Mannar. The recent repopulation of the Pearl Banks has revived interest in Ceylon's pearls and pearl fisheries. Successful fisheries have been held recently and surveys of the Pearl Banks are carried out regularly. The bibliography deals with all aspects of the biology of the pearl oyster, as well as the pearl fisheries. But its scope is limited by the library facilities available at the Fisheries Research Station, the Colombo Museum Library, the University of Ceylon Library and the Library of the Ceylon Institute for Scientific and Industrial Research. Annotation is not possible at this stage, for allpublications are not available for reference.
