Abstract

We include in this chapter species of plants and animals from a wide range of phyla that are cultured either as foods for aquacultural species, for bait to catch sportfish, for medical research or environmental assays, as ornamental species, for chemical (carrageen) production, or for miscellaneous market products (e.g., pearls, sponges). As mentioned in the Introduction to this book, some species are raised for more than one market: Summaries of such species are normally given in the discussion of their principal use, to which the reader is directed for additional information.
