U.S. fisheries are among the world's largest and most sustainable. Seafood harvested from federally-managed U.S. fisheries is inherently sustainable as a result of our science-based fishery management process. This directory of seafood profiles focuses on the most common federally-managed marine species. It is not a comprehensive list of all seafood species you may encounter in the marketplace, or all the species caught or farmed in U.S. waters. Can't find a particular type of seafood? It may not be in our directory if: it is primarily harvested from state (not federal) waters, it is a freshwater species, or it is not a product of the United States.
