A study of tagging methods for the sea cucumber Cucumaria frondosa in the waters off Maine
The sea cucumber fishery in waters off Maine is developing and has recently experienced great increases in landings, corresponding to expanding export markets. Between 1994 and 1996, reported landings ranged from one to three million pounds (Fig. 1). In 1999, reported landings were over eight millio...
