A comparative SEM study of ossicles in the Pleuronectiformes (Teleostei) of the Baltic Sea; pp. 495–517 [PDF]
The morphologies of ossicles of the European plaice Pleuronectes platessa Linnaeus, the European flounder Platichthys flesus trachurus (Linnaeus) (Pleuronectidae), and the turbot Scophthalmus maximus (Linnaeus) (Scophthalmidae) are described and compared.

I HAVE been advised by Mr. Murray of the Challenger expedition to inquire, through your columns, whether the experience of any of your correspondents coincides with mine as to the gradual failure—in some places almost the extinction—of flatfish where whelk-gathering is prosecuted.

Diet, growth and reproduction of four flatfishes on the Portuguese coast
Four flatfish species were collected between January 2003 and June 2005 from commercial fishing vessels operating with gill nets and bottom trawls along the Portuguese coast in order to examine feeding habits, age and growth and reproduction.

Immigration and early life stages recruitment of the European flounder (Platichthys flesus) to an estuarine nursery: the influence of environmental factors [PDF]
Connectivity between coastal spawning grounds and estuarine nurseries is a critical step in the life cycle of many fish species. Larval immigration and transport-associated physical–biological processes are determinants of recruitment success to nursery ...

Study of the development of the caudal endoskeleton of the turbot Scophthalmus maximus L., 1758 (Pleuronectiformes: Scopthalmidae) [PDF]
The development of the caudal endoskeleton of the turbot (Scophthalmus maximus L.) is described and compared to the setting-up of the caudal endoskeleton in other flatfishes.

Competition theory suggests that interspecific prey competition can result in changes to the dietary niche, but obtaining timeseries of data from sympatric species experiencing temporal variation in competition is challenging. Scotland is an important area for two species of seals, but over the past 20 years, populations of harbour seals Phoca vitulina

The habitat occupied by flatfish fry differs considerably in light regime from that of the adult. The diversity of opsins and their expression patterns appear greatest for flatfishes to experience variable light environments.

Evidence of the selection of tidal streams by northern rock sole (Lepidopsetta polyxystra) for transport in the eastern Bering Sea [PDF]
Depth data from archival tags on northern rock sole (Lepidopsetta polyxystra) were examined to assess whether fish used tidal currents to aid horizontal migration.

Inter-rater reliability of categorical versus continuous scoring of fish vitality : does it affect the utility of the reflex action mortality predictor (RAMP) approach? [PDF]
Scoring reflex responsiveness and injury of aquatic organisms has gained popularity as predictors of discard survival. Given this method relies upon the individual interpretation of scoring criteria, an evaluation of its robustness is done here to test ...
