Summary:This working document presents the results of Merluccius merluccius (hake), Lophius budegassa (black anglerfish), Lophius piscatorius (white anglerfish), Lepidorhombus boscii (four-spot megrim) and Lepidorhombus whiffiagonis (megrim) caught on the Porcupine Spanish Groundfish Survey (SP-PORC-Q3) in 2021. Biomass, abundance, distribution and length frequency were analysed. Biomass indices of these target species increased in this last survey, except for L. piscatorius and recruitment increased for all of them, except for M. merluccius.
