List of abalone synonyms

This list of abalone synonyms is a list of scientific names that have been given to abalone species worldwide. Carl Linnaeus described the type species Haliotis asinina in 1758, and over the centuries a large number of additional species of abalone were named using the proper scientific process for naming a species.
