It comprtses forms such as the enormous whales which are really mammals, on the one hand, to fishes proper and to such forms as prawns, . crabs, lobsters, shrimps, turtles, oysters, clams, and so on. Species which swim about freely and migrate from place to place, such as the tunas, sardines, mackerels, etc. constitute pelagic fisheries; those which are confin ed t,o the sea bottom mostly, flat fishes, perches, rays, prawns, lobsters, etc. constitute tbe, demersal fisheries.
