Abstract

This report, consisting of 29 studies, describes the relevant population biology, resource analyses and fishery management of elasmobranchs at regional, national and sub-regional levels - in Atlantic Europe, the United States, the Caribbean, Guatemala, South Africa, Uruguay, the Falkland Island, the Seychelles, two states in India, the Maldives, Malaysia, Australia, New Zealand, Japan Fiji and Ecuador. In general, the case studies cover the topics of the resource (species composition of fishery, distribution of fishery and associated species either as bycatch of discards) and development and current status of the means of prosecuting the fishery and the harvesting process. The evolution of the catch, fleet and fishing effort are also given. In terms of commerce, fishery markets and revenues from the fishery are described where possible together with comments of the economics of the fishery and information relating to the fisheries workforce.
