Abstract

A new hybrid flatfish (Isopsetta isolepis X Parophrys vetulus) is described from two specimens collected in the Strait of Georgia and Puget Sound, Washington. Four putative parental species were selected based on morphological similarities to the hybrid. Principal component analysis was conducted on the correlation matrix for nine meristic characters. Parentage was assigned on the basis of meristic intermediacy between the hybrid and the putative parental species.
