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.

CALIFORNIA MARINE FISH LANDINGS FOR 1972 LEO PINKAS Marine Resources Region 1.1. INTRODUCTION The protection, propagation, and wise utilization of California's living marine resources (established as common property by statute, Section 1600, Fish and Game Code) is dependent upon the welding of biological, environment- al, economic, and sociological factors. Fundamental to each of these factors, as well as the entire management pro- cess, are harvest records. The California Department of Fish and Game began gathering commercial fisheries land- ing data in 1916. Commercial fish catches were first published in 1929 for the years 1926 and 1927. This report, the 32nd in the landing series, is for the calendar year 1972. It summarizes commercial fishing activities in marine as well as fresh waters and includes the catches of the sportfishing partyboat fleet. Preliminary landing data are published annually in the circular series which also enumerates certain fishery products produced from the catch.

  • Monkfish (Lophius Americanus)
    Emerging Species Profile Sheets Department of Fisheries and Aquaculture Monkfish (Lophius americanus) Common Names: Goosefish, monk-tail, American angler, angel-shark, American goosefish, all-mouth, fishing frog, baudroie. Description, Distribution and Biology Monkfish is a large bottom-dwelling (demersal), cartilaginous lethargic fish from the family Lophiidae. It has a flat body, large pectoral fins, a bulky head and an enormous mouth, with canine-like teeth. They are typically dark brown in colour shading to a light tan towards the abdomen with red pelvic fins and dark tipped pectoral fins (Fig.1). Monkfish is distributed throughout the western Atlantic Ocean, from the Labrador shelf to northern Florida. In Canadian waters, monkfish is more abundant on the southern Grand Banks, through the Gulf of St. Lawrence, on the Scotian Shelf and in the Bay of Fundy. This species generally inhabits warm slope regions with a variety of sediment types. It can be found at all depths from 0 to over 650 m and can tolerate a wide range of temperatures, but prefers temperatures between 6 and 10 0C. Studies on seasonal distribution suggest that monkfish will migrate to shallower bank waters during the summer and move to deeper waters Figure 1. Monkfish. Source: Steven A. Murawski, NOAA, Northeast Fisheries Science Center, Woods during the winter. Hole, MA In Canadian waters, monkfish typically spawn between June and September. Eggs, which are pelagic, spherical and 1.61 to 1.84 mm in diameter are deposited at the surface in large mucous sheets. The sheets are pink in colour and can contain more than a million eggs.

Fax: 886-2-28106688. E-mail: [email protected] (Accepted December 20, 2000) John Ta-Ming Wang and Che-Tsung Chen (2001) A review of lanternfishes (Families: Myctophidae and Neoscopelidae) and their distributions around Taiwan and the Tungsha Islands with notes on seventeen new records. Zoological Studies 40(2): 103-126. Lanternfishes collected during 9 cruises from 1991 to 1997 were studied. The area sampled lies between 19°N and 25°N and 114°E and 123°E. The specimens collected in this area comprise 40 species belong to 16 genera, among which 17 species are first records. These first record species include Benthosema fibulatum, Bolinichthys supralateralis, Electrona risso, Hygophum proximum, H. reinhardtii, Lampadena anomala, Lobianchia gemellarii, Lampanyctus niger, L. turneri, L. tenuiformis, Myctophum asperum, M. aurolaternatum, M. nitidulum, M. spinosum, Notolychnus valdiviae, Notoscopelus caudispinosus, and N. resplendens. Among these, six species, Bolinichthys supralateralis, Electrona risso, Lampanyctus turneri, Lampadena anomala, Notolychnus valdiviae, and Notoscopelus caudispinosus, are first records for the South China Sea, and the species, Lampadena anomala is a new record for Asian oceans (Table 1). Four species (Triphoturus microchir, Diaphus diadematus, D. latus, and D. taaningi) were controversial in previous reports, so they are discussed in this study. Geographic distributions and localities of catches of all lanternfish species are shown on the maps (Figs.
