Abstract
    The quantity, diversity and origins of seafood imports to Australia have increased dramatically in recent decades, and importers now supply more than 60% of the commercial market in Australia. Australia's 225 imported seafood species are superbly documented in this user-friendly and comprehensive identification guide. Colour photographs, protein fingerprints, and fish fillet features are provided for an amazing variety of seafoods: finfishes, crustaceans, molluscs, jellyfishes, sea cucumbers and seaweeds. It is an easy-to-use guide to all major seafood species imported, including fish fillets, which link each species to its approved, national marketing name.
