Colonial record of shellfish in Port River
September 4, 2016A hunt along the shore at Taperoo Beach revealed that native oysters are still surviving on our local shorelines. Some large flat oyster shells were found, as well as a number of pinna (razorfish) with clusters of small ostrea angasi shell on their surface, suggesting that the larvae from the shellfish are continuing to settle when they find suitable substrate.
