 (excludes shell) while all other species such as shrimp and finfishes are reported as whole (live) weights.

 the final sales of products to processors and dealers. The "Miscellaneous" includes ornamental/tropical fish, 

 alligators, algae, aquatic plants, eels, scallops, crabs, and others. The tiigh value and low production of
