Resumen
Descripción
Giant red shrimp (Aristaeomorpha foliacea) and blue and red shrimp (Aristeus antennatus) are two of the most valuable fishery resources in the Mediterranean and comprise most of the landed value from deep-water capture fisheries in the central Mediterranean. To support the sustainability of these fisheries, the GFCM adopted three multiannual management plans in 2022 for giant red shrimp and blue and red shrimp. This publication aims to inform the development of effective long-term adaptive management measures within these existing management plans by presenting the results of a collaborative effort to compile comprehensive data, information and research concerning the biology, ecology and fishery of these species in the central-eastern Mediterranean. The analyses and data contained within this study highlight the significant progress that has been made towards improving the understanding of giant red shrimp and blue and red shrimp, while emphasizing the additional work needed to address gaps in order to strengthen the management of deep-water red shrimp fisheries.
