      abstract = {The economic importance of mariculture in less developed  countries (LDCs) and their development plans are discussed.  The basic processes involved in mariculture are outlined  and some of the species maricultured in LDCs are  considered. Factors which are important in assessing the  suitability of a species for mariculture in developing  countries are highlighted. These include consumer  acceptance, biology, environmental, technological and  economic factors. The economic success or otherwise of a  species for mariculture depends upon all the factors as  well as others.},
