A photo catalogue of fishes and invertebrates from the 2017 Central and Arctic Region trawl survey in Baffin Bay / by Claude Nozères, Virginie Roy, Lisa Treau de Coeli, Margaret Treble, Kevin Hedges, and...: Fs97-6/3324E-PDF

"A digital image catalogue has been created to validate the occurrences of fish and invertebrate taxa sampled from October 27 to November 8, 2017 during a bottom trawl survey in Northwest Atlantic Fisheries Organization Division 0A (Baffin Bay) conducted by Fisheries and Oceans Canada Central and Arctic Region. Captures at 74 stations revealed 116 taxa, representing mostly deepwater demersal fishes, shrimps, sea stars, and sponges. Photos helped to reduce the need to conserve specimens for identification following surveys and can be a source of additional biological information that would not otherwise be recorded while at sea. While more taxa would be revealed using a variety of sampling gear, trawl surveys remain a valuable tool for monitoring mega-epibenthos and demersal fishes. Selected photos of the taxa are presented in an appendix"--Abstract, page iv.
