Features 20 lessons for assessing and guiding the use of restocking and stock enhancement in the management of invertebrate fisheries. This work covers 11 species of marine invertebrates; reviews over 1000 scientific papers; and, proposes a fresh approach to assess the potential value of hatchery releases to complement other forms of management.
