4.1.3.Landings and discards data

4.1.3.1.Landed species


This description is based upon the he list of deep-water species from Annex I of EU regulation 2347/2002 of the council of 16 December 2002. The main species in the landings of the French fleet have been roundnose grenadier, black scabbardfish, blue ling, orange roughy, greater forkbeard, siki sharks (leafscale gulper shark and Portuguese dogfish) and black dogfish. Since the onset of the fishery, siki sharks were reported combined, only from 2002 an increasing proportion of the landing have been reported as either leafscale gulper shark or Portuguese dogfish. Black dogfish was mainly discarded in the first years of the fishery and began to be landed in the late 1990s.

A number of species from Annex I of the regulation have never been landed and some other were landed as minor quantities only (Table 4.1.3.1). Minor quantities may not be reliable as a few coding errors in landings of important species may appear as small amount of another species. For example, the FAO code for leafscale gulper shark is GUQ, if it happesn to be mistyped as GUP this will appear as Gulper shark (Centrophorus granulosus).

The total landings reported landings of all species quoted as "minor landings" in table 4.1.3.1. were 42 tonnes from 2003 to n2008.
