The role of structuring benthos for juvenile flatfish

open access: yesJournal of Sea Research, 2013
Within coastal nurseries, the distribution of juvenile flatfish may depend on small-scale habitat variability. The presence of ecosystem engineers is known to have important impacts in coastal sediments. Lanice conchilega is a well-known marine ecosystem

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.

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

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,

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).

The background adaptation of the flatfish, Paralichthys olivaceus

Physiology & Behavior, 1991
The background adaptation of the flatfish, Paralichthys olivaceus, was studied by sliding beneath the fish a long strip of plastic sheet with various patterns to serve as a background. The body shade and pattern differed depending upon the pattern used.

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.

Neuronal adaptation accompanying metamorphosis in the flatfish

Journal of Neurobiology, 1990
AbstractFlatfish provide a natural paradigm to investigate adaptive changes in the central nervous system of vertebrates. During their metamorphosis, the animals undergo a 90° tilt to one side or the other to become the bottom‐adapted adult flatfish. The eye on the down side is pushed over to the up side.
