    Identification guide to the deep–sea cartilaginous fishes of the Southeastern Atlantic Ocean FAO. 2015. Identification guide to the deep–sea cartilaginous fishes of the Southeastern Atlantic Ocean. FishFinder Programme, by Ebert, D.A. and Mostarda, E., Rome, Italy. Supervision: Merete Tandstad, Jessica Sanders (FAO, Rome) Technical editor: Edoardo Mostarda (FAO, Rome) Colour illustrations, cover and graphic design: Emanuela D’Antoni (FAO, Rome) This guide was prepared under the “FAO Deep–sea Fisheries Programme” thanks to a generous funding from the Government of Norway (Support to the implementation of the International Guidelines on the Management of Deep-Sea Fisheries in the High Seas project) for the purpose of assisting states, institutions, the fishing industry and RFMO/As in the implementation of FAO International Guidelines for the Management of Deep-sea Fisheries in the High Seas. It was developed in close collaboration with the FishFinder Programme of the Marine and Inland Fisheries Branch, Fisheries Department, Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO). The present guide covers the deep–sea Southeastern Atlantic Ocean and that portion of Southwestern Indian Ocean from 18°42’E to 30°00’E (FAO Fishing Area 47). It includes a selection of cartilaginous fish species of major, moderate and minor importance to fisheries as well as those of doubtful or potential use to fisheries. It also covers those little known species that may be of research, educational, and ecological importance. In this region, the deep–sea chondrichthyan fauna is currently represented by 50 shark, 20 batoid and 8 chimaera species. This guide includes full species accounts for 37 shark, 9 batoid and 4 chimaera species selected as being the more difficult to identify and/or commonly caught.

  • Abstract Introduction
    2020 Fisheries Centre Research Reports 28(5) ANTARCTICA AND SURROUNDING ISLANDS: UPDATED CATCH RECONSTRUCTIONS FOR 2011-2018* Darcy Dunstana, Courtney Browna Simon-Luc Noëla, Veronica Relanoa, Rachel Whiteb and Dirk Zellerb a) Sea Around Us, Institute for the Oceans and Fisheries, University of British Columbia, 2202 Main Mall, Vancouver, BC, V6T 1Z4, Canada b) Sea Around Us- Indian Ocean, School of Biological Sciences, University of Western Australia, 35 Stirling Hwy, Crawley 6009, WA, Australia Abstract This contribution presents updated catch reconstructions for 2011-2018 for Antarctica’s Large Marine Ecosystem and the Exclusive Economic Zones of Bouvet Island (Norway), Crozet Island (France), Falkland Islands (U.K.), South Georgia, South Sandwich, and South Orkney Islands (U.K.), Kerguelen Islands (France), St. Paul and Amsterdam Islands (France) and Prince Edward Island (South Africa). The major difficulties in updating the catch reconstructions for these countries were the remote nature of these areas and the data peculiarity of the Commission for the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources (CCAMLR) of reporting by fishing season (i.e., December of one year to November the next year) rather than standardized to calendar year. These difficulties were overcome by converting catches reported for the fishing season to calendar year, and applying literature estimates to estimate IUU fishing of commercially valuable species. Specific details on how each reconstruction was updated and carried forward are presented by island or island group. Introduction This contribution presents the basic methods used and assumptions made to update to 2018 the catch reconstructions initially covering the year 1950 to 2010 performed by the Sea Around Us and its international network of collaborators.
