Popis: The reef–dwelling goat–fishes, Pseudupeneus maculatus (Bloch) 1793 aand Mulloidichthys martinicus (C. & V.) 1829, form a small, but valuable, component of fish–trap catches in the Caribbean Sea and adjacent regions. Investigations of these species in Jamaican waters have covered relative and absolute growth rates, spawning seasons, sizes at maturity, distribution patterns, size compositions of populations, relative abundances and mortality rates. Previous literature concerning the biology and ecology of these species is reviewed.
