| Pearls from illegally poached bivalves is always a possibility. Even bivalves bearing natural pearls that are not protected species, should be fished or harvested sustainably, because otherwise, that is how they end up on a protected species list real quick. This is always a concern pertaining to "recently" fished natural pearls.
Would the P. mazatlantica, fluoresce pink or red like the P. sterna under UV light?
