Abstract

Poor, lonely, homely turbot—this is how Canada’s Minister of Fisheries, Brian Tobin, described one of the last commercially exploitable groundfish stocks left on the once-rich Grand Banks of Newfoundland. With their slimy skin and bulging eyes delicately arranged at art angle atop their heads, turbot are undoubtedly homely. They must also be as lonely as any fish can get, with the northern cod and other historical friends and relations now so greatly depleted.
