Abstract
The limited quantity of published and unpublished literature and historical material on capelin, Mallotus villosus (Muller), in Greenland waters is reviewed, and the information is synthesized to describe distribution, stock discrimination, migration, and life history. The biological information is compared with information from beach-spawning populations elsewhere. The role of the species as a forage fish for other organisms, stock size estimates, and the commercial and experimental fisheries are reviewed.
