I appreciate that information. However, flounders themselves are not bilaterally symmetrical. I have caught many dozens of them and it’s pretty easy to tell that they are not.
Isn’t it referring to during development? Like as they’re forming, they are bilateral? I haven’t taken developmental biology in many years, so I’m maybe wrong.

Flounders are born symmetrical; eye migration happens as they transition to the juvenile stage of growth.

They are born (or hatch too lazy to look up) and their eyes move later once they get larger.
