Early Development of Northeast Arctic Greenland Halibut (<i>Reinhardtius hippoglossoides</i>)

The early development of the Greenland halibut (Reinhardtius hippoglossoides) has not been described. This study presents some preliminary notes on the egg development of the Northeast Arctic Greenland halibut. Buoyancy and morphometric characteristics of artificially spawned eggs are compared with field sampled eggs, in order to identify these to species.
