As compared with the enormous and crowded beds of the small varieties as they exist in the Gulf of Manaar and at the island of Margarita, Venezuela, where they can be literally scooped up, the scattered bunches of the meleagrina do not afford easy data for reckoning averages. On the coasts of China, Japan, Korea, some of the South Sea Islands, the English Channel islands, the Canary islands, about St. Malo on the coast of France, at Queen Charlotte's island and along the coast of California fro...m north of San Francisco to the border of Lower California, at the Cape of Good Hope, India, Australia and New Zealand, a shell-fish is taken which has considerable commercial value and yields pearls to a limited extent. It is called in this country abalone. In the 244 PEARL FISHERIES Channel islands it is known as the ormer. It is the Haliotis or Earshell.

Old English writers praised it as a delicious morsel under the name of ormond saying that it was bigger and infinitely better than the oyster.
