| Summary: | The redfish (Sebastes marinus L.) is a member of the family Scorpaenidae, the members of which are commonly called rockfishes. This family has a very wide distribution and is confined to salt water. The majority of the recorded species are found in the temperate Pacific waters, while only a few species occur in the North Atlantic. Of these, the species of most economic importance is the redfish (S. marinus L.). There is considerable confusion in the literature as to the number of species of Sebastes which occur in North Atlantic waters. |
