Assessment of northern wolfish, spotted wolfish, and Atlantic wolfish in the Atlantic and Arctic Oceans / R.K. Collins ... [et al.].: Fs70-5/2014-034E-PDF

"This paper presents the most recent information on trends in abundance, distribution, and fishery removals of Anarhichus denticulatus (Northern Wolffish), A. minor (Spotted Wolffish), and A. lupus (Atlantic Wolffish) in the Northwest Atlantic and Arctic Oceans in support of an allowable harm assessment of these species. Previously, all three species were listed on Schedule 1 of Canada’s Species at Risk Act (SARA) as being at risk, due to significant declines in relative abundance indices and reduction in area occupied during the 1980s and early 1990s. Their SARA status was upheld in November 2012 by the Committee on the Status of Endangered Wildlife in Canada (COSEWIC)"--Abstract, p. iii.
