We addressed the revisions requested by the WG-SAM-14 regarding the results of the second year of Spanish research experience and ongoing research plan presented in WG-SAM- 14/12 and WG-SAM-14/09. A summary of the results of the Spanish research that took place in the 58.4.1 division during the last two fishing seasons is presented. A prospective estimation of the local biomass (BLOC) of three SSRUs visited using the local depletion method, together with the extrapolation to the total Biomass in the entire SSRUs, as well as an estimation of the Biomass in SSRU 58.4.1H using the mark-recapture Petersen model is made.
