Caractères distinctifs : La Limande à queue jaune a une petite bouche qui la distingue de tous les Poissons plats, sauf de la Plie rouge, de la Plie lisse, et de la Plie grise. Elle se distingue d'emblée de ces dernières à sa ligne latérale arquée; la ligne latérale des trois autres espèces est droite. 3, record 1, French, - limande%20%C3%A0%20queue%20jaune
Record number: 1, Textual support number: 2 OBS
Sur le marché actuel les trois espèces suivantes : plie canadienne, plie rouge et limande à queue jaune, sont confondues dans un même ensemble dont généralement plus de 90% est constitué de plie canadienne. En conséquence, il est recommandé d'utiliser la dénomination plie canadienne pour cet ensemble. Il pourrait être avantageux, par la suite, d'en promouvoir la commercialisation séparée, auquel cas on devra utiliser chaque terme normalisé. 4, record 1, French, - limande%20%C3%A0%20queue%20jaune
