Abstract
  • Beginning in the late 1960s and throughout the past decade, unusual, perhaps neoplastic, large cells with rather consistent characteristics were described in mussels, clams, and oysters from several bays in the United States and the United Kingdom. The large, characteristic cells are thought by many workers to be abnormal leukocytes or leukocyte precursors. This note describes an apparently identical condition in Ostrea chilensis from Chile.
