Tetrodotoxin (TTX), also known as pufferfish toxin, has been detected in marine edible bivalves worldwide. In this study, several bivalve species, Azumapecten farreri subsp. akazara, Patinopecten yessoensis and Mytilus galloprovincialis, collected from the Pacific side of the northern Japanese Islands, were studied for the accumulation of TTX in the presence of toxic planocerid larvae. LC-MS/MS analysis demonstrated that TTX was detected only in the midgut gland of A. farreri subsp. akazara. Toxic flatworm-specific PCR and direct
