Flounder Biology

[quote name='Jazman' post='6937' date='Jun 6 2006, 11:39 AM']This site has some pics of flounder larvae, they don't look much like the adults!

And this is the web site of a guy who investigates things like how the flounder eye migrates. His site has a lot of movies (which I can't view on my computer at the moment) about eye migration:

I took the dog for a walk down the beach in blairgowrie the other day and while I was wading through the shallows I saw 3 flounder, the biggest being only about 15cm and the two small ones about the size of a 20 cent piece. Anyways, on closer inspection of the real shallow water I found a fourth dead flounder about the size of a ten cent piece or smaller and it was interesting to note that the eye had most certainly already migrated to the same side of the head despit being a reasonably undeveloped fish.



Oh well, I thought it was interesting even if you blokes couldnt give a shiite.
