The U.S. squid jiggers have targeted Ommastrephes bartramii in the North Pacific high seas waters and could move into U.S. Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) waters in the Western Pacific Region. Although no resource concerns have arisen to date, current monitoring systems are sub-optimal and there are no mechanisms in place to implement management measures should they become necessary. This amendment to the Pelagics Fishery Management Plan addresses these issues. The Western Pacific Fishery Management Council (Council) recommends improving data on U.S. squid fisheries through new permitting, monitoring and reporting requirements, and by establishing domestic mechanisms for management. Amendment 15 includes: Adding the following pelagic squid species as Pelagic Management Unit Species (MUS): Ommastrephes bartramii, Thysanoteuthis rhombus, and Sthenoteuthis oualaniensis, and require ii U.S. vessels greater than 50 ft in length overall that fish for pelagic squid in U.S. EEZ of the western Pacific to obtain Federal permits under the Pelagics Fishery Management Plan, to carry Federal observers if requested by NMFS, and to report any Pacific pelagic squid catch and effort either in Federal logbooks or via existing local reporting systems. The minimum vessel length of 50 feet was selected because this is the approximate lower size limit for commercial squid vessels that fish in the U.S. EEZ and on the high seas, and the smallest size that could readily accommodate observers. Smaller vessels may conduct commercial squid fishing nearer to shore in Hawaii, and their commercial catch is already reported on State commercial catch reports. In other areas, local creel census or commercial sales invoices provide information on the squid catch by smaller vessels. Under this alternative, NMFS would replace previously-used HSFCA logbooks with logbooks specifically designed for squid fishing. Vessels that only fish on the high seas would be required to report their catch and effort using the revised HSFCA logbooks. Squid fishery data would be centralized into a fishery database easily available to resource scientists and managers. These measures, if implemented, would provide additional data and provisions to enable the Council and NMFS to better monitor and manage the U.S. domestic pelagic squid fisheries in the future. Amendment 15 includes an environmental assessment (EA) that describes the existing squid fishery management and environment, and describes the potential environmental impacts of implementing Alternative 3a. This EA tiers off of a previous Final Environmental Impact Statement (FEIS) that was made available to the public in 2005 (70 FR 24038; May 6, 2005) and incorporates by reference the previous environmental impact analysis of five of the alternatives for Amendment 15. New information about future fishery management policies became available after the Final EIS was completed and the additional alternative considered here addresses the new policy information. iii Summary Pelagic squid are targeted by food and bait fisheries throughout the Pacific and are considered by many to be a ‘keystone’ species. Squid are active predators and targeted prey items for many species of fish, mammals, birds and sea turtles. The Council reviewed current data collection systems and found them insufficient. Current data collection is considered insufficient by the Western Pacific Regional Fishery Management Council (Council), which recommedned an amendment to the Pelagics Fishery Management Plan (FMP). The purpose of this amendment is to provide for improved squid fisheries data and establish the framework for future management measures that may be needed to manage squid fisheries within the U.S. Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ). An international, large-scale squid jigging fishery (multi-species) exists on the Pacific high seas. This includes both foreign and a few domestic (U.S. flagged) fishing vessels. The Japanese jigging fleet was dominant in the North Pacific, but is rivaled now by a rapidly growing Chinese fleet. The fishery is seasonal with most vessels switching to the Southern hemisphere during the antipodean summer (October – February). Three domestic squid jig vessels fished for squid in the North Pacific for a month or less in the summer of 2003, catching O. bartramii, (red flying squid) on the high seas and offloading it in Japan. Following a disappointing season they transferred to New Zealand’s waters for the 2003 summer/autumn squid season. Fishing for squid was reportedly excellent in the southern hemisphere season in 2004. To date these domestic jigging vessels have fished on the high seas or in the waters of other nations, but the operator anticipates a potential transfer of fishing activity, possibly including to U.S. Exclusive Economic Zone waters (EEZ) around Hawaii, in association with a shift in oceanic conditions. In addition, a small near-shore squid jigging fishery operating out of Kauai targets S. oualaniensis (purpleback squid). This fishery provides food and some bait squid. A tuna handline fishery operating primarily from the island of Hawaii (referred to as the Big Island) also catches S. oualaniensis on jigs; these squid are then used as bait to target yellowfin tuna. Although significant in the 1970s and 1980s, current participation in this fishery is now estimated to consist of one to three vessels. Pelagic squid are widely dispersed and short-lived with relatively high fecundity rates. Populations recover very quickly following declines and are very difficult to overfish by relatively inefficient methods such as jigging (in the past drift gillnets were used but these have been illegal since 1992). For example, stock abundance of O. bartramii in the Central North Pacific was extremely low in 1993, probably due to high fishing rates derived from the driftnet fishery (Yatsu et al., 1999). When the fishery ended in 1992, the O. bartramii stock quickly recovered and abundance was high during 1994-96. Stock abundance was again depressed in 1997, the most prominent El Niño year in this century, but was high in 1998. There is currently no evidence of overfishing of pelagic squid stocks on the high seas or in Hawaii’s waters. However, squid are a major component of the pelagic ecosystem, with large species preying on a variety of fish and invertebrate species and smaller species providing important forage components for species such as swordfish and pilot whales. The keystone role of squid in the forage base of a wide variety of pelagic fish and marine mammals means that they may be an iv important indicator of ecosystem dynamics. Although U.S. fisheries in the northern waters of the Western Pacific catch a tiny fraction of the total international squid production, data provided by monitoring of these fisheries is, as yet, the only indicator available of squid stock status. Fishing by most domestic vessels is managed under the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act (MSA), which in 1976 established a system of regional fishery management Councils. These Councils develop fishery management plans establishing mechanisms to monitor and manage their “management unit species” (those species managed under each fishery management plan). Annual reports are prepared for each fishery management plan which present and analyze catch and effort data, as well as stock status and other indicators for each management unit species. Based on this and other information, Councils then make management recommendations to the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) which, if approved, are promulgated through the publication of proposed and final rules in the Federal Register and their implementing regulations are then codified in the Code of Federal Regulations. Under the MSA the Western Pacific Regional Fishery Management Council consists of the States of Hawaii, American Samoa, Guam, and the Northern Mariana Islands and has authority over the fisheries in the Pacific Ocean seaward of such States and of the Commonwealths, territories, and possessions of the United States in the Pacific Ocean area. Further as articulated in NMFS’ guidelines for the MSA’s National Standard 3 (Section 301(a)(3), Councils are required to manage stocks to the extent possible throughout their ranges, not only in EEZ waters. This is also important for

  • A Review of Southern Ocean Squids Using Nets and Beaks
    Marine Biodiversity (2020) 50:98 https://doi.org/10.1007/s12526-020-01113-4 REVIEW A review of Southern Ocean squids using nets and beaks Yves Cherel1 Received: 31 May 2020 /Revised: 31 August 2020 /Accepted: 3 September 2020 # Senckenberg Gesellschaft für Naturforschung 2020 Abstract This review presents an innovative approach to investigate the teuthofauna from the Southern Ocean by combining two com- plementary data sets, the literature on cephalopod taxonomy and biogeography, together with predator dietary investigations. Sixty squids were recorded south of the Subtropical Front, including one circumpolar Antarctic (Psychroteuthis glacialis Thiele, 1920), 13 circumpolar Southern Ocean, 20 circumpolar subantarctic, eight regional subantarctic, and 12 occasional subantarctic species. A critical evaluation removed five species from the list, and one species has an unknown taxonomic status. The 42 Southern Ocean squids belong to three large taxonomic units, bathyteuthoids (n = 1 species), myopsids (n =1),andoegopsids (n = 40). A high level of endemism (21 species, 50%, all oegopsids) characterizes the Southern Ocean teuthofauna. Seventeen families of oegopsids are represented, with three dominating families, onychoteuthids (seven species, five endemics), ommastrephids (six species, three endemics), and cranchiids (five species, three endemics). Recent improvements in beak identification and taxonomy allowed making new correspondence between beak and species names, such as Galiteuthis suhmi (Hoyle 1886), Liguriella podophtalma Issel, 1908, and the recently described Taonius notalia Evans, in prep. Gonatus phoebetriae beaks were synonymized with those of Gonatopsis octopedatus Sasaki, 1920, thus increasing significantly the number of records and detailing the circumpolar distribution of this rarely caught Southern Ocean squid. The review extends considerably the number of species, including endemics, recorded from the Southern Ocean, but it also highlights that the corresponding species to two well-described beaks (Moroteuthopsis sp.

Genetic differentiation in Berryteuthis magister from the North Pacific. - ICES mar. Sei. Symp., 199: 459-467. Berryteuthis magister is a widespread quasibenthic commercial squid from the North Pacific. Intraspecific genetic differentiation was determined by allozyme electrophore­ tic analysis. Eighteen sample lots (2100 individuals) from geographically separated North Pacific regions were subjected to allozyme electrophoretic analysis using a total of 14 enzymes and unidentified ganglion protein spectra with polymorphic zones. Four loci with variant allele frequencies greater than 0.05 were found to be useful for population studies. No significant violations of the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium were found at any loci in the samples. There was no evidence of genetic differences between sexes. Analysis of genetic differentiation using Wright’s F-statistics, cluster analysis of genetic distances, and contingency chi-square analysis suggested that there are popu­ lation differences between squids from the three major geographical localities: the Sea of Japan, the Kurile-Komandor region, and the Gulf of Alaska. Genetic divergence between squid from the Kurile-Komandor part of the species range probably reflects subpopulation differentiation of local stocks from successive generations. O. N.

  • Aspects of the Natural History of Pelagic Cephalopods of the Hawaiian Mesopelagic-Boundary Region 1
    Pacific Science (1995), vol. 49, no. 2: 143-155 © 1995 by University of Hawai'i Press. All rights reserved Aspects of the Natural History of Pelagic Cephalopods of the Hawaiian Mesopelagic-Boundary Region 1 RICHARD EDWARD YOUNG 2 ABSTRACT: Pelagic cephalopods of the mesopelagic-boundary region in Hawai'i have proven difficult to sample but seem to occupy a variety ofhabitats within this zone. Abralia trigonura Berry inhabits the zone only as adults; A. astrosticta Berry may inhabit the inner boundary zone, and Pterygioteuthis giardi Fischer appears to be a facultative inhabitant. Three other mesopelagic species, Liocranchia reinhardti (Steenstrup), Chiroteuthis imperator Chun, and Iridoteuthis iris (Berry), are probable inhabitants; the latter two are suspected to be nonvertical migrants. The mesopelagic-boundary region also contains a variety of other pelagic cephalopods. Some are transients, common species of the mesopelagic zone in offshore waters such as Abraliopsis spp., neritic species such as Euprymna scolopes Berry, and oceanic epipelagic species such as Tremoctopus violaceus Chiaie and Argonauta argo Linnaeus. Others are appar­ ently permanent but either epipelagic (Onychoteuthis sp. C) or demersal (No­ totodarus hawaiiensis [Berry] and Haliphron atlanticus Steenstrup). Submersible observations show that Nototodarus hawaiiensis commonly "sits" on the bot­ tom and Haliphron atlanticus broods its young in the manner of some pelagic octopods. THE CONCEPT OF the mesopelagic-boundary over bottom depths of the same range. The region (m-b region) was first introduced by designation of an inner zone is based on Reid et al.

    A5 By-catch Species APPENDIX 5: BY-CATCH SPECIES A.5 By-catch species By-catch is the unintentional/incidental capture of non-target species during fishing operations. Different types of fisheries have different types and levels of by-catch, depending on the gear used, the time, area and depth fished, etc. Article IV of the Convention states: "the Commission shall be responsible for the study of the population of tuna and tuna-like fishes (the Scombriformes with the exception of Trichiuridae and Gempylidae and the genus Scomber) and such other species of fishes exploited in tuna fishing in the Convention area as are not under investigation by another international fishery organization". The following is a list of by-catch species recorded as being ever caught by any major tuna fishery in the Atlantic/Mediterranean. Note that the lists are qualitative and are not indicative of quantity or mortality. Thus, the presence of a species in the lists does not imply that it is caught in significant quantities, or that individuals that are caught necessarily die.
