Class Cephalopoda. Of these, about 30–40 squid species have substantial commercial …

Abstract The European Union (EU) is one of the most important markets for cephalopods in
the world. Currently, small-scale fisheries targeting the common octopus in the EU are of …

This study aims to advance knowledge of the discards from bottom trawling in the
northwestern Mediterranean. The composition of bottom trawl landings and discards is …

Cephalopods play a signicant role in coastal and oceanic ecosystems, both as consumers of
invertebrates and small sh and as the prey of some sh, seabirds and marine mammals and …

Recognising the need for data gathering at taxon level besides the taxa of commercial

Exploitation patterns of the common octopus, Octopus vulgaris, in two Mediterranean areas
were studied in three ports, two in the Thracian Sea (Greece, Eastern Mediterranean) and …

The life cycle of the two species of the deep-sea family Histioteuthidae inhabiting the
Mediterranean Sea (Histioteuthis reversa and Histioteuthis bonnellii) was studied from …

A spatially explicit capture-recapture (SCR) model was applied to estimate simultaneously
population parameters and individual activity (ie home range size) of O. vulgaris, based on …
