Description:The quahog is a resource of major economic importance in Rhode Island. It is also the most important commercial species that is managed solely by the state. Most of the catch comes from Narragansett Bay; throughout the state, large areas of potentially productive beds are closed because of poor water quality. Researchers with long-term interests in quahog biology have synthesized information in a form that can be combined with data from the Dept. of Environmental Management to provide a species profile. It is hoped that this profile will become a source of information to fishermen, fisheries managers, and environmental planners.
