摘要

An illustrated key to nearshore and shelf species includes 133 taxa. Seventy-nine genera are represented. In an annotated list, the distribution and ecology of each species are recorded within the area of Cape Hatteras to Nova Scotia and out to a depth of 50 m on the continental shelf. The key is intended to aid the nonspecialist in identification of the species to be expected in the marshes, estuaries, littoral zone, bays, and inner parts of the continental shelf.
