"Fisheries managers use the term "underutilized species" for marine organisms that have long been ignored by most fishermen, but have suddenly become very marketable. Marine scientists, on the other hand, tend to be uncomfortable with the expression. To them, it implies that a species is wasted simply because it is not being scooped up for human consumption or other commercial use. It glosses over the point that, although these species may be "underutilized" economically, they are invariably "fully utilized" ecologically. ... The practice of harvesting "underutilized species" at lower and lower levels in the food chain increases the likelihood of adversely effecting more commercially important species at the higher trophic levels. Regrettably, we don't know enough about most marine food chains to be able to predict the extent or seriousness of these ecological "chain" reactions."--p. 1. gccst Aquatic ecosystems gccst Fisheries Canada.
