Otolith Collection of Yellowtail Flounder in the southern Gulf of St. Lawrence
Yellowtail Flounder otoliths are collected from scientific surveys and from scientific sampling of commercial fisheries. The otoliths collected are placed in paper envelopes, recorded and held in a climate-controlled storage facility. Age determination is performed yearly on the available samples.
The information made available through this metadata record is the summary of otoliths present in the collection at the Gulf Fisheries Centre in Moncton, NB, Canada.
There is additional information of observed sex, length, weight and age information of fish specimens made by trained Fisheries and Oceans Canada technicians that can be made available upon request.

PARAMETERS COLLECTED:
length (biological), age (biological)
NOTES ON QUALITY CONTROL:
A reference collection for ageing Yellowtail Flounder exists and is used to calibrate the age readings obtained by the fisheries technicians that process the otoliths.
PHYSICAL SAMPLE DETAILS:
Fish otoliths
SAMPLING METHODS:
Yellowtail Flounder otoliths are obtained from fish specimens collected during research surveys and during scientific sampling of commercial fisheries. The sagittal otolith is removed from sampled specimens, recorded, placed in a protective medium and held in a climate-controlled storage facility.
