    Description: The marine life industry in Florida is defined as the harvest of live marine specimens (fish andinvertebrate species including plants, live rock and sand, and small “critters”) for commercial use,primarily aquariums. This paper summarizes data collected on the industry since 1990, includingtotal landings, revenues, and trends over time. Regional analysis shows where the primary collectingareas are located in Florida. Seasonal analysis shows when the majority of landings occur within theyear. Statistics on the number of participants by type (i.e., collector versus wholesaler) provideinsight into the size of the industry. Trends are evaluated in terms of changes across the 9-yearperiod from 1990 to 1998. In general, the number of licensed collectors has increased substantially,landings of fish and animal invertebrates peaked in 1994, angelfish dominated the fish landings, liverock dominated the invertebrate landings, and the average landings per trip have remained relativelyconstant.

    Description: A survey of marine life wholesalers was initiated in 1999 as a first step towards understanding thenature of Florida’s marine life industry, the demand for Florida products, and the need for changes inthe way the industry is regulated. Florida firms deal primarily in marine species and collect much oftheir own product. Wholesalers outside of Florida handle more freshwater species and purchase mostof their inventory, the majority from overseas suppliers. Dealers predict that the average firm sizewill continue to grow as the industry consolidates. Niche markets for eco-friendly product will gainmomentum. In Florida, marketing strategies should point to the high quality of Florida species withemphasis on the growing popularity of invertebrates. Wholesalers should look to provide buyers ofFlorida product with more consistent quantities throughout the year. Resource managers will bechallenged to find ways to protect over-harvested species without interfering with the collection ofabundant species while considering the effect of new regulations. (42pp.)

    Description: This report describes and summarizes the results from a state-wide survey of Floridaresident saltwater anglers. The survey was designed to provide estimates of the economic valueanglers place on marginal changes in management of selected near-shore marine species.The Contingent valuation method was used to elicit angler willingness to pay for changesin management for redfish, seatrout , mullet, sheepshead, pompano. and king mackerel.Contingent valuation is a process in which respondents are presented with a detailed scenario thatdescribes an opportunity to express their willingness to pay for a proposed change in currentconditions. The process consists of three parts. First. the change in current conditions, or the"good" to be valued is described. Second, the payment method is described. The paymentmethod is usually closely related to typical methods of buying goods similar to the one to bevalued. Finally. the respondent is asked how much they would pay for the good described inthe scenario. A special saltwater fishing license stamp that would allow the holder to takeadvantage of the described management change was used as a payment mechanism. (PDF contains 147 pages.)

    Description: The importance of international markets as a source of live, ornamental “fish” supply is growing dueto more stringent wild-harvest regulations in Florida. In addition, foreign markets are increasing inimportance as a source of demand for Florida purveyors of live, ornamental “fish”. Florida plays animportant role in this growing international market. Trends in imports and exports of live,ornamental “fish” are described for two primary data sets: U.S. Customs and U.S. Fish and WildlifeService. These trends are described primarily for the 1994-98 period for Florida and the UnitedStates. Florida imports and exports are described for the two major ports: Miami and Tampa. Themost important trading countries are also described. This information will help Florida purveyors oflive, ornamental “fish” better understand the international markets upon which they have becomemore dependent. (PDF has 18 pages)
