Review of white hake (Urophycis tenuis) in the northern Gulf of St. Lawrence in support of a recovery potential assessment / Claude Nozères ... [et al.].: Fs70-5/2015-076E-PDF
The Atlantic and northern Gulf of St. Lawrence population of White Hake was designated as threatened in November of 2013 by the Committee on the Status of Endangered Wildlife in Canada (COSEWIC). Following on the COSEWIC assessment, Fisheries and Oceans Canada (DFO) Science Branch was asked to undertake a Recovery Potential Assessment (RPA) for the White Hake populations assessed as threatened or endangered. This Research Document supports the RPA for the Atlantic and northern Gulf of St. Lawrence DU (ANGSL). It describes the current state of knowledge of White Hake in the northern Gulf of St. Lawrence (nGSL) portion of the ANGSL DU in terms of its biology, ecology, abundance, distribution and trends, habitat requirements and threats.
