Description of embryonic development of Atka mackerel (Pleurogrammus monopterygius)
Atka mackerel (Pleurogrammus monopterygius) is hexagrammid fish that inhabits the temperate and subarctic North Pacific Ocean and neighboring seas (Fig. 1). This highlyabundant fish is a critically important prey species (Sinclair and Zeppelin, 2002; Zenger, 2004) that supportsa directed commercial...
