Ottawa: Fisheries and Oceans, 1999. (Canadian Technical Report of Fisheries and Aquatic Sciences. 2285). Abstract: "The invertebrate and urochordate fauna associated with commercial scallop beds in the lower Bay of Fundy was examined through the bycatch of scallop fishing drags. Bycatch of these species was observed during the 1997 Department of Fisheries and Oceans inshore scallop stock assessments of Scallop Production Areas 4 and 1 (off Digby, Nova Scotia), Area 3 (below Brier Island and near Yarmouth, Nova Scotia) and Area 6 (Grand Manan, New Brunswick). A total of 234 tows were made and 261 species observed including representatives from 13 phyla. Field identification was only possible for 83 taxa, and their distribution was mapped using the tow location data derived from the ship's dGPS. The associated fauna are listed according to phylum. A brief overview of the characteristics of the phyla are also provided."--Page iv. 1, record 2, English, - Diversity%20and%20Distribution%20of%20Associated%20Fauna%20of%20Commercial%20Scallop%20Grounds%20in%20the%20Lower%20Bay%20of%20Fundy
