The unique asymmetric structure and appearance of flatfishes, their abilities to change colour to match the background and to burrow in the sediment all make them a fascinating subject of study. Following a brief history of flatfish research and its contribution to fish biology and fisheries science, the scope and contents of Flatfishes: Biology and Exploitation are outlined. The contents can be roughly...
Given the global concern about the status of elasmobranch fishes, the paucity of information on elasmobranchs in the Red Sea is worrisome. Management of elasmobranchs in areas other than the Red Sea has been helped by research on population ecology, reproductive biology and resource partitioning, subjects that are virtually absent in the Red Sea elasmobranch literature. This review provides the first...
Oceans have received only slight consideration in recent discussions of the global fisheries crisis, even though fisheries provide much-needed protein, jobs, and income, especially in poor rural communities of developing countries. Systematic overfishing of fresh waters is largely unrecognized because of weak reporting and because fishery declines take place within a complex of other pressures. Moreover,...
