Deep Sea Cartilaginous Fishes of the Indian Ocean

The present guide covers the deep sea Indian Ocean, primarily FAO Fishing Areas 51 and 57, and that part of Area 47 that extends from Cape Point, South Africa to the east, e.g. the extreme southwestern Indian Ocean. It includes a selection of species of major, moderate and minor importance to fisheries as well as those of doubtful or potential use to fisheries. It also covers those little known species that may be of research, educational, and ecological importance. This publication is in a special plastified format, ideal for onboard ships and fishing vessels. "
