another possible rendering:

persons designated to inherit from the decedent/deceased are his legitimate heirs

"Llamados a la sucesión" refers to those who are eligible to inherit or designated as legal heirs under intestacy law, rather than to a "summons" or "call". The person is then required to either accept or decline it.

SUCESIÓN INTESTADA-Se denomina también sucesión legítima o sucesión legal. Es la ordenación y distribución que prevé la ley de los bienes de un causante cuando éste muere sin testamento, o el testamento que deja es ineficaz o no cubre totalmente con sus previsiones el destino del patrimonio relicto. Sus reglas se fundamentan en el llamado sistema personal o sistema subjetivo, que da primacía a la proximidad de parentesco entre el causante y el llamado a sucederle. La sucesión intestada está prevista como sucesión universal. Los herederos son los únicos derechohabientes en la sucesión intestada, si ésta es la única que opera, puesto que dicha sucesión no prevé nunca legatarios o beneficiarios particulares.

Código civil, artículos 658, 912 a 923, 390 a 942.
