Occurrence of Juvenile Paralichthys lethostigma (Southern Flounder) in Tributaries of Chesapeake Bay
Paralichthys lethostigma (Southern Flounder) inhabits the continental shelf and estuarine waters of the Gulf of Mexico and the east coast of the North Atlantic, from peninsular Florida to Albemarle Sound in North Carolina. Between 30 May and 20 August 2012, we collected 15 juvenile (71-192 mm) South...
