Abstract

This study describes the distribution patterns and population structure of greater weever in the Adriatic Sea. Biological data were obtained during MEDITS surveys in the spring-summer period. The aim of this study is to provide recent data for better understanding of species biology and to create basis for fisheries management based on ecological approach.

The data obtained during MEDITS surveys (1996 – 2013) in the Central and Northern Adriatic Sea during spring-summer period shows that T. draco has stratified spatial distribution by the area and depth (Figure 2)
Distribution patterns and population density shows that this species is more abundant in the eastern side of the Adriatic, mainly in the channel area and in the northern part along eastern coast

Summary

Introduction

Greater weever Trachinus draco distribution population density population structure the Adriatic Sea pauk bijelac Trachinus draco distribucija gustoća populacije struktura populacije Jadransko more Greater weever is widely distributed in the Mediterranean area, population density is not so high compared to the total catch of other commercially important demersal species and has a minor commercial importance [6]. The data obtained during MEDITS surveys (1996 – 2013) in the Central and Northern Adriatic Sea during spring-summer period shows that T. draco has stratified spatial distribution by the area and depth (Figure 2).
