Notes on the fishes collected during the 1980-1981 exploratory bottom trawl fishing off the South Shetland Islands
Species composition of the bottom trawl collection from the adjacent waters of the South Shetland Islands was represented by the number of species and specimens. Descriptions of the embryos and the egg-capsules of the rajid fishes and of Trematomus hansoni with abnormally developed lower lateral lin...
