Potential of sites in northern Cuba for developing an industry of the native mangrove oyster (Crassostrea rhizophorae)

Mangrove oysters (Crassostrea rhizophorae) were collected and raised for seven months at four sites (Punta Pargo, Jorobado, Cañete, and Enfermería) around Bahía Sagua La Grande on the north coast of Cuba, to determine which site offered the best conditions for cultivation of this commercially import...
