La cardine (lepidorhombus mégastoma. donovan. Lepidorhombus whiff. walbaum) Résumé des connaissances acquises sur la biologie de ce poisson

The megrim (Lepidorhombus megastoma Donovan) also called "Limandelle", or "Grande Calimande", and more coarsely "Salope" (slut), is not a rare fish anymore. Since the trawlers have improved their fishing techniques and widened their fishing areas, they have reached the deep waters where it usually cruises. Consequently, it has become more common on the market stalls and, though not being the focus of a specific fishery, it is regularly fished by the trawlers cruising off shore. In this preliminary work, we tried to summarize the scattered observations written previously on this species' ethology and ecology.
