Something might be seriously wrong with this article. Pinctada radiata is certainly native to the Caribbean -- their Cubagua population actually being the first documented case of resource extinction by the newly arrived Europeans.
The current second reference in the article does point to the correct interpretation of radiata.--189.237.226.20 (talk) 23:52, 6 November 2011 (UTC)Reply
