Plaice are determinate spawners in which fecundity is determined before the onset of spawning.
The European plaice lives in the demersal, oceanodromous, brackish, marine, depth range 0 - 200 m , usually 10 - 50 m environment.
The European plaice is a well-known food fish that is found in the North Atlantic Ocean from Iceland through the North Sea and, occasionally, in the eastern Mediterranean. It usually does not exceed 51 cm (20 in) in length, but larger specimens have been taken. More
European plaice has red spots on its body and bony knobs on its head behind the eyes. It feeds on sea worms and shellfish, which it crushes with strong blunt teeth located in its throat. The European plaice spawns during the winter. More
The European plaice is closely related to the sole, and is Europe's most commercially important flatfish. The face of this fish is a bit confusing, but don't be alarmed; it's supposed to look twisted. More
Both the American and European plaice are suitable for almost any cooking method. See also fish; flatfish. More
