It may be unappetizing to look at, but this newly arrived species of anglerfish,Lophius piscatorius—that's "monkfish" to seafood fans—could prove a tasty addition to Greenland's fishery, according to study leader Peter Møller.
Though monkfish remain rare in Greenland, they appear to be taking advantage to the island's warmer sea temperatures—as are fellow relatively shallow-water species, including Mueller's pearlsides, whiting, blackbelly rosefish, and snake pipefish.
"Monkfish is so expensive and popular" that it stands out as a potential commercial species from all the other new fish recorded in the survey, Møller said.
