The study of the Portuguese marine ichthyofauna has a long historical tradition, rooted back in the 18th Century. Here we present an annotated checklist of the marine fishes from Portuguese waters, including the area encompassed by the proposed extension of the Portuguese continental shelf and the Economic Exclusive Zone (EEZ). The list is based on historical literature records and taxon occurrence data obtained from natural history collections, together with new revisions and occurrences. -

Common Guitarfish (Rhinobatos Rhinobatos)
12th Meeting of the Conference of the Parties (CoP12) to the Convention on Migratory Species (CMS) Common Guitarfish (Rhinobatos rhinobatos) Proposed action: Inclusion on CMS Appendices II Proponents: Israel, Mauritania, Senegal, and Togo Proposed action: Inclusion of the Mediterranean population of the Guitarfish on CMS in Appendix I Proponent: Israel Overview The common guitarfish is considered by the IUCN as one of the most threatened fish in the Mediterranean Sea, largely due to overfishing. It is currently listed as Endangered at the global level. Many species of guitarfish migrate seasonally to give birth, which makes them vulnerable to several types of fishing activities. The species would benefit in its Mediterranean and western African ranges from cooperative regional and international management. Israel proposes listing the global population of the common guitarfish on CMS Appendix II and the Mediterranean Sea population of the same taxon on Appendix I as well. Mauritania, Senegal, and Togo are also proposing listing the global population of this species on Appendix II. 12th Meeting of the Conference of the Parties (CoP12) to the Convention on Migratory Species (CMS) Biology and Distribution This species has declined throughout much of its range, and is now likely extinct in the Mediterranean waters of Spain, Rhinobatos rhinobatos is a cartilaginous fish in the France, Italy, and likely the entire Adriatic Sea. Rhinobatidae family of rays. R. rhinobatos is a bottom- dwelling species that consumes a variety of crustaceans, Uses fishes, and mollusks. The species has been present in waters as deep as 100 m throughout the Mediterranean and in the In some areas, the species is fished in targeted fisheries for sub-tropical regions of the eastern Atlantic from the Bay of local consumption as food. -
