The Cost of Metamorphosis in Flatfishes

Journal of Sea Research, 2007
Flatfish development includes a unique physical metamorphosis with morphological and physiological changes associated with eye migration, a 90° rotation in posture and asymmetrical pigmentation. Flatfish larvae also undergo settlement, a behavioural and ecological change associated with a transition from a pelagic to a benthic existence.

Behaviour and the Distribution of Flatfishes

Journal of Sea Research, 1997
Abstract The paper reviews the changes in distribution that take place during the development of flatfishes from the egg to the adult. It describes the behaviour patterns involved in changing habitats, particularly the use of vertical migration to take advantage of tidal currents to aid transport, and the controlling mechanisms underlying these ...

Immediate Hypersensitivity Responses in Flatfish

Science, 1974
Fungal extracts that precipitate with human C-reactive protein caused immediate erythema on subdermal injection into marine flatfish. Only species with calcium-dependent serum precipitins to these fungi showed skin reactions. Immediate hypersensitivity in a nonreactive species could be induced after injection with serum from reactive species.

The physiology of flatfish chromatophores

Microscopy Research and Technique, 2002
AbstractMost flatfish, of the order Pleuronectiformes, possess a white lower side, and a brown or grey upper side. This upper side can display integumentary patterning with dark areas and colored or white spots. Chromatophores in flatfish are dermal and epidermal melanophores, as well as dermal xanthophores, erythrophores, iridophores, and leucophores,

An overview of the second flatfish symposium: Recruitment in flatfish

Netherlands Journal of Sea Research, 1994
The Second International Flatfish Symposium was focused around recruitment and opened with a challenge and a question. The challenge was to intensify and clarify our thinking about recruitment. The question was: why, after nearly a century of concerted efforts, do we not yet understand (have the ability to predict) variability in year-class strength of

Respiratory Currents of Flatfish

Nature, 1967
WE have observed specimens of the following species of flatfish (Pleuronectiformes) in an aquarium with a transparent bottom: Scophthalmus maximus (L.) (Bothidae); Limanda limanda (L.), Pleuronectes platessa L. and Platichthys flesus (L.) (Pleuronectidae); Solea solea (L.) and Buglossidium luteutn (Risso) (Soleidae).

Flatfish metamorphosis: A hypothalamic independent process?

Molecular and Cellular Endocrinology, 2015
Anuran and flatfish metamorphosis are tightly regulated by thyroid hormones that are the necessary and sufficient factors that drive this developmental event. In the present study whole mount in situ hybridization (WISH) and quantitative PCR in sole are used to explore the central regulation of flatfish metamorphosis.
