Bibliography The files of the Arctic Environmental Information and Data Center were utilized for the compilation of an initial bibliography. Refcrenc:ed titles were then obtained and citations pertaining to the area and species of interest which appeared in these reports were added to expand the initial bibliography. References were deleted if, when obtained, the study was not found to pertain to the area or species of interest. lQ a few cases where references were unobtainable, such citations are followed by the note "(not seen)" to indicate that any pertinent data contained in this reference is not included in the remainder of the inventory. All possible reference sources are listed with the exception of those containing extremely general subject matter, most early (before 1910) explor- atory reports, and annual report series such as Alaska Fishery and Jur-Seal Industries in (yeat) which were issued prior to 1960. b. Species Lists A list of anadromous and coastal marine fishes for each proposed refuge or proposed additions to existing refuges was compiled. An initial list was taken from each final environmental statement; however, three major taxonomic references were consulted to add to, or delete from this initial list - List of Fishes of Alaska and Adjacent Waters with a Guide to Some of Their Liter~ture (Quast and Hall 1972), Pacific/ Fishes of Canada (Hart 1973), and Freshwnt~r Flshes of Cannda (Scott and Crossman 1973). -

Early Stages of Fishes in the Western North Atlantic Ocean Volume
ISBN 0-9689167-4-x Early Stages of Fishes in the Western North Atlantic Ocean (Davis Strait, Southern Greenland and Flemish Cap to Cape Hatteras) Volume One Acipenseriformes through Syngnathiformes Michael P. Fahay ii Early Stages of Fishes in the Western North Atlantic Ocean iii Dedication This monograph is dedicated to those highly skilled larval fish illustrators whose talents and efforts have greatly facilitated the study of fish ontogeny. The works of many of those fine illustrators grace these pages. iv Early Stages of Fishes in the Western North Atlantic Ocean v Preface The contents of this monograph are a revision and update of an earlier atlas describing the eggs and larvae of western Atlantic marine fishes occurring between the Scotian Shelf and Cape Hatteras, North Carolina (Fahay, 1983). The three-fold increase in the total num- ber of species covered in the current compilation is the result of both a larger study area and a recent increase in published ontogenetic studies of fishes by many authors and students of the morphology of early stages of marine fishes. It is a tribute to the efforts of those authors that the ontogeny of greater than 70% of species known from the western North Atlantic Ocean is now well described. Michael Fahay 241 Sabino Road West Bath, Maine 04530 U.S.A. vi Acknowledgements I greatly appreciate the help provided by a number of very knowledgeable friends and colleagues dur- ing the preparation of this monograph. Jon Hare undertook a painstakingly critical review of the entire monograph, corrected omissions, inconsistencies, and errors of fact, and made suggestions which markedly improved its organization and presentation. -

Constant commercial fishing for groundfish has occurred since the 1960s. The implementation of areas closed to bottom trawling to protect critical habitat for fish or crabs resulted in successful management of these fisheries. The efficacy of these closures on non-target species is unknown. This study determined if differences in abundance, biomass, diversity and evenness of dominant fish and invertebrate species occur among areas open and closed to bottom trawling in the eastern Bering Sea between 1996 and 2000. -
