Some impetus for preparation of such a bibliography was given by discussion at meetings of the Technical Sub-Coumittee of the International 1 Trawl Fishery Cormnittee in 1965 , Subsequent correspondence between Sub­ Committee members concerning species inclusion and subject matter of the bibliography suggested that a complete annotated type, while highly desirable, would take an inordinate time for compilation. It was agreed to work toward early publication of a preliminary bibliography which would be of value to groundfish workers on the Pacific coast. In an early compilation of literature, it was found that there were many references to work which had been conducted on the spiny dogfish <Sgualus acanthias) from Atlantic waters. The references appeared because the scientific nomenclature is the same as that for the Pacific dogfish. The relevance of these papers was not questioned; certainly much of the work would apply to the Pacific dogfish. However, it was felt that a thorough search of the European literature might prove difficult and thus yield only a partial bibliography on .§.. acanthias. For this reason, only the references to Pacific dogfish were retained in the bibliography. It was also found that there were many references to groundfish species in the popular outdoor-type and trade magazines and papers. However, many such merely cited existence of some species within its known range. The inclusion of these types of reference would only pad the bibliography and make it less meaningful. They were, therefore, not included. A further decision was made to exclude papers on fisheries science methodology except in those cases with application to species on the Pacific coast. We thus excluded Beverton and Holtls (1957), liOn the dynamics of exploited fish populations," and included Ricker's (1958), "Handbook of computa­ tions for biological statistics of fish populations," which contains reference and examples concerning groundfish on this coast. In addition, papers pertaining solely to the Pacific halibut <Hippoglossus stenolepis) were excluded. This species is the object of study by the International Pacific Halibut Coumission and it was felt that body possessed a complete bibliography on the halibut. lThe Technical Sub-Coumittee is composed of groundfish workers from Canada and west coast agencies of the United States, and was established by the Trawl Fishery Cem:nittee in 1959 to examine problems pertaining to the trawl fisheries of the two countries along the Pacific coast of North America. Both the Cem:nittee and the Sub·Coumittee have met annually since that time. - 2 - Readers who might use the following list of publications should consider it a preliminary list and we would appreciate being informed of omissions of consequence. It should also be noted that there are a few entries of uncertain relevance which we were unable to examine, e.g•• Kuronuma (1941), Sakun (1961). The papers in the current compilation have been assigned numbers which also appear in a following list of species or subjects. ACKNCMLEDGMENTS The assistance of Mrs. E. Kehler and Mrs. J. Smith in checking a large number of the references is gratefully acknowledged. - 3 - BIBLIOGRAPHY A 1. ABAKUMOV. V. A. 1964.

  • Why Are There So Many Flatfishes? Jaw Asymmetry, Diet, and Diversification in the Pleuronectiformes
    Why are there so many flatfishes? Jaw asymmetry, diet, and diversification in the Pleuronectiformes Jonathan Chang1 Functional Morphology and Ecology of Fishes Summer 2014 1Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology, University of California, Los Angeles, CA 90095, USA. Contact information: Jonathan Chang 610 Charles E. Young Drive S Los Angeles CA 90095 [email protected] Keywords: flatfish, Pleuronectidae, Paralichthyidae, Bothidae, asymmetry, geometric morphometrics, comparative methods, functional morphology Chang 1 Abstract Flatfishes (Actinopterygii: Pleuronectiformes) are a diverse group of teleost fishes, with over 700 species in the order. Jaw asymmetry and diet have been thought to contribute to flatfish diversity but this has not yet been tested in a comparative framework. Here I use geometric morphometric and comparative methods to test whether ocular-blind side asymmetry in flatfish head morphology contributed to flatfish diversification. I find that the repeated convergent evolution of similar morphology, jaw function, and diet likely contribute to the high diversity of flatfishes. Introduction Pleuronectiform fishes are highly diverse, with over 700 described species (Froese and Pauly, 2014). These fishes are characterized by their unique bilateral asymmetry and their benthic ecology. Flatfishes also generally consume one of three main types of prey: buried infauna, pelagic fishes and crustaceans, and a third type intermediate to the first two (de Groot 1971, Tsuruta & Omori 1976). I hypothesize that this specialization into different prey types has driven the diversification and morphological disparity in asymmetry of flatfish species. Methods 12 species of flatfish comprising of 11 genera and 2 families (Table 1) were collected via trawl and seine at these sites: Jackson Beach, [48°31'13.0"N 123°00'35.1"W] and Orcas – Eastsound [48°38'26.9"N 122°52'14.0"W].

  • Checklist of Inshore Demersal Fishes from Southern and Central California
    1 T /I•• .•' -:-~~:.;ir_:...~ ·.. ?·>,/ \:' --:1:.· ;)~{ --~ ;_. ··~ . AWt1 l'll This list was prepared to compare southern California trawl-caught fishes with those caught north of Point Conception. All data are based on otter trawl or beam trawl surveys; sources are listed at the end of the list, along with information on the effort, gear, and depths sampled in each survey. The list, which simply shows the presence or absence of species, reveals that at least 225 species1 of fish have been taken by otter trawl in coastal regions of southern and central California. Of these, 185 have been caught in southern California alone; 79 species have been found in both southern and central California waters. To provide a picture of the present coastal shelf bottom fish com­ munities, the data from 1969-72 southern California trawling sur­ veys (Southern California coastal Water Research Project 1973) were analyzed to identify recurrent groups (commonly associated species) of fishes. The analysis showed that about one-fifth of the 121 nearshore demersal species found in these surveys appeared in statistically significant associations. ~Five major groups and six associate species were defined in the analysis; the groups are shown in Figure 1. With the exception of the yellowchin sculpin (Icelinus guadriser­ iatus), queenfish (Seriphus politus), blackbelly eelpout (Lycodop­ sis pacifica), and blacktip poacher (Xeneretmus latifrons}, all southern California recurrent group species were also noted in the central California surveys described here. (The latter three species are known to occur at least as far north as northern Cali­ fornia; the fact that they were not noted in the central California surveys may be a result of low sampling effort in their depth ranges.} 1.

  • Market Update
    MIXED PROGRESS IN 2008 ALASKA FLATFISH FISHERIES When the North Pacific Fishery Management Council (the Council) cut the 2008 Bering Sea pollock quotas by 28%, it supplemented the total all-species quota in the Bering Sea with major increases to quotas of various flatfish species. Although these flatfish species command lower prices than pollock or Pacific cod, the Council felt increased flatfish quotas could somewhat offset quota holders for the lost pollock revenue. Here is a table showing the 2008 quotas of several major Alaskan groundfish species: ALASKA GROUNDFISH TOTAL ALLOWABLE CATCH (TAC) 2007-2008 all figures in metric tons (MT) % 2007 2008 change Species BSAI GOA Total BSAI GOA Total Total Pollock 1,413,010 68,307 1,481,317 1,019,010 60,180 1,079,190 (27.1%) Pacific cod 171,000 52,264 223,264 170,720 50,269 220,989 (1.0%) Yellowfin sole 136,000 136,000 225,000 225,000 65.4% Arrowtooth flounder 20,000 43,000 63,000 75,000 43,000 118,000 87.3% Northern rock sole 55,000 55,000 75,000 75,000 36.4% Flathead sole 30,000 9,148 39,148 50,000 11,054 61,054 56.0% Alaska plaice 25,000 25,000 50,000 50,000 100.0% Atka mackerel 63,000 1,500 64,500 60,700 1,500 62,200 (3.6%) All other species 87,315 95,693 183,008 112,915 96,823 209,738 14.6% Total 2,000,325 269,912 2,270,237 1,838,345 262,826 2,101,171 (7.4%) Notes BSAI Bering Sea / Aleutian Islands area GOA Gulf of Alaska area Stalled yellowfin sole fishery Despite the quota increases, trawlers in Alaska have yet to fill their pollock shortfall with flatfish, due mainly to a slow start to the yellowfin sole fishery.
