Please send us the complete citations and, if possible, abstracts of any new papers or reports which you have published or produced, and which you feel may be of interest to other readers. We will endeavour to provide details in future issues. Reports do not have to be formally published - indeed those with a restricted distribution which will not make their way into standard citation lists are often of particular interest, since they may not otherwise come to our attention.

The following are useful sources of information on elasmobranch or other marine animal tagging programmes and techniques.
