Book excerpt: Excerpt from Seasonal Distributions of Larval Flatfishes (Pleuronectiforms) On the Continental Shelf Between Cape Cod, Massachusetts, and Cape Lookout, North Carolina, 1965-66 Recruitment is a major factor determining the size of heavily exploited fish populations such as those found along our eastern seaboard. Unfortunately, we lack the needed scientific information about the life histories of most coastal fishes to relate numbers of adults to numbers of young and, in turn, relate numbers of young to the sequence of biological and environmental events that lead to a successful year class. The sound management policies that seem so essential during this period of increased foreign and domestic fishing pressure will follow the enormously important task of understanding life histories in their entirety; not just that part dealing with adults but with all stages of development.
