I don't believe I asked you to recite the home of all the members.

Well I remembered it because someone suggested he might be a golf player. \:\)

The paper I still have available if you would like to read it. If it was natural selection I would not have even mentioned the paper. It is suggesting genetic changes from smaller fish spawning will produce a smaller variety to cope with environment. This is a personal communication with the author:

"Do you think these changes to the genetic size of these fish is related to the their size when they span?"

THE AUTHOR
I have attached a copy of the paper. I believe it will help in your questions. All of the traits we measured are correlated responses to genetic declines in body size. If you have any further questions I would be happy to answer
them.



"During generation 5, the fecundity in the large-size harvested populations was c. 60% less than the random-size harvested fish!"


60% is a number big enough IMO to bridge all species of fish!
