First report of sablefish in spawning condition off the coast of Kamchatka and the Kuril Islands
Abstract The population status of sablefish Anoplopoma fimbria (Anoplopomatidae) inhabiting the Asian coast of the western North Pacific is still uncertain, with no direct observations of sablefish spawning. This paper describes the first capture of pre-spawning and spawning individuals in Pacific w...
