Sampling data were obtained from 170 observations onboard 18 commercial fishing vessels. Fifty-two species belonging to 31 families of fish, including cephalopods, constituted the by-catch. Diplodus annularis was the most abundant by-catch species followed by Loligo vulgaris > Sepia officinalis > Mullus barbatus > Boops boops > and Solea vulgaris. The estimated total ratio of fish by-catch to shrimp was 1 : 1.09 kg. © 2008 Blackwell Verlag.en10.1111/j.1439-0426.2008.01066.xinfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessArticle243339341Q3
