This graph is automatically uploaded from FAO's statistics database (FISHSTAT Plus, universal software for fishery statistical time series). 'Market' and 'trade' aspects, outlined separately, provide general overviews of the main exporting/importing countries and, detail the main products obtained from the species (e.g. frozen and value-added products, etc.), related prices and market regulations. In conclusion, the 'status and trends' section include market perspectives and main recommendations. A detailed and comprehensive bibliography, as well as related links is also included at the end of each fact sheet (Fig. 1). Publication process The process that leads to the publication of these fact sheets includes: Identification of recognized experts, either independent or linked to research institutes (e.g. universities, international organizations, etc.); Preparation of the document by the author(s) following a standard template; Validation of the structure and contents (by FAO and in collaboration with the authors); Language editing; Translation into the five official languages of FAO, i.e. Arabic, Chinese, English, French, and Spanish; Formatting and online publications (XML - Extensible Mockup Language and XHTML editing) on the internet (FAO Fisheries Department home page); and Regular updating. It is hoped that an international network of experts (individual or institute), in collaboration with FAO, will become joint owners of the fact sheets and thus be responsible for providing updates. So far 40 fact sheets (Table 1) have been developed and posted on the internet within the FAO Aquaculture gateway page. They are visible at: http : //www. fao. org/figis/serv let/ static?dom=root&xml=aquaculture/ cultured_search.xml Invitation to contribute Experts who wish to contribute their professional knowledge to the compilation of the new planned Cultured Species fact sheets shown in Table 2 are cordially invited to participate in this endeavor.
