Pleuronectes

On the Pacific side in the eastern Bering Sea, yellowfin sole, flathead sole (Hippoglossoides elassodon), rock sole (Pleuronectes bilineatus), Alaska plaice (Pleuronectes quadrituberculatus), and arrowtooth flounder (Atheresthes stomias) are important members of the groundfish community [101].

General description of the Arctic biota 2009

Several flatfish, including halibut (Hippoglossus hippoglossus), Greenland halibut (Reinhardtius hippoglossoides), and flounder (Pleuronectes ferrugineus) are important locally for food and for cash.

Fisheries and aquaculture in the North Pacific (Bering Sea) 2009

Landings from the Icelandic area were no longer almost exclusively cod, but species such as haddock, halibut, plaice ( '' Pleuronectes platessa ''), and redfish ( '' Sebastes marinus '') also became common items of the catch.

Fisheries and aquaculture in the Central North Atlantic (Iceland and Greenland) 2009

In estuarine habitats, there are likely to be shifts in species composition to more euryhaline and anadromous species (e.g., fourhorn sculpin – Myoxocephalus quadricornis, ninespine stickleback – Pungitius pungitius, threespine stickleback – Gasterosteus aculeatus, Arctic flounder – Pleuronectes glacialis, salmonines, and coregonines).
