An intensive review was made of the historical and present work on trans- 

 planting seagrasses, including eelgrass, turtle grass, shoalgrass, manatee grass 

 and ditch grass. The best seasons, recommended methods of transplanting, and 

 propagules to use for each species are listed for the coasts of the United 

 States. Some of the more important environmental parameters which directly in- 

 fluence successful transplanting are reviewed.
