Abstract: We give a partial answer to the following question of Dobrinen: For a given topological Ramsey space $mathcalR$, are the notions of selective for $mathcalR$ and Ramsey for $mathcalR$ equivalent? Every topological Ramsey space $mathcalR$ has an associated notion of Ramsey ultrafilter for $mathcalR$ and selective ultrafilter for $mathcalR$ (see cite{MijaresSelective}). If $mathcalR$ is taken to be the Ellentuck space then the two concepts reduce to the familiar notions of Ramsey and selective ultrafilters on $omega$; so by a well-known result of Kunen the two are equivalent. We give the first example of an ultrafilter on a topological Ramsey space that is selective but not Ramsey for the space, and in fact a countable collection of such examples. For each positive integer $n$ we show that for the topological Ramsey space $mathcal{R}_n$ from cite{Ramsey-Class2}, the notions of selective for $mathcal{R}_n$ and Ramsey for $mathcal{R}_n$ are not equivalent. In particular, we prove that forcing with a closely related space using almost-reduction, adjoins an ultrafilter that is selective but not Ramsey for $mathcal{R}_n$. Moreover, we introduce a notion of finite product among members of the family $mathcal{R}_n:n<omega$. We show that forcing with closely related product spaces using almost-reduction, adjoins ultrafilters that are selective but not Ramsey for these product topological Ramsey spaces.
