The feeding habits, rates of growth, fecundity and other aspects of the general biology of five‐bearded rockling from the Severn Estuary and the Bristol Channel are reviewed for the period 1974/76. Additionally the changes in heavy metal accumulation during this time have been measured and an attempt has been made to relate them to the diet of the fish.
