Abstract

Both Fiji and French Polynesia presented the pro and con of Larval Recruitment and Research larval identification within their own sites/country and some of the participants asked about the real benefits of restocking. Also, from the discussion, it was noted that there is a real need for more cooperation, for production of outputs, and for comparison of tools. It was noted that French Polynesia has a good expertise on that subject. Participants point out also that information sharing is really needed and useful.
