Editorial

Here is the 11th edition of the Bulletin, which has been issued more quickly than usual as enough information has been received to advance the publication date.

Readers, I would like to take this opportunity to thank all those who have already contributed to the Bulletin and ask that you take an active role in its improvement, as many of you have already indicated that you find the Bulletin useful. Comments from new members are particularly welcome.

— Is the current presentation by section, i.e. 1) New Information, 2) Correspondence, 3) Publications, satisfactory?

— Which section should be given more space?

— In the ‘New Information’ section, are the parts on ‘In situ spawning observations’ and ‘Asexual reproduction through fission observations’ suitable?

— The column ‘Aquacultural information’ has been continued thanks to the collaboration of S. Battaglene from ICLARM. Do you find it useful?

—Are there any other new parts that you would like to see included?

Your suggestions and comments will be both useful and necessary for the Bulletin’s development.

Bulletin no. 11 includes original articles about the resources of several countries, including Indonesia, Canada and Mexico. Many different aspects of the biology of asexual reproduction through fission and the biology of one rare species are discussed.

A detailed summary of a publication by Infofish is presented in this issue due to high interest in the subject, even though the Bulletin generally gives priority to original articles.
