Photo catalogue of coastal marine fauna on the Icelandic Scallop (Chlamys islandica) survey in the northern Gulf of St. Lawrence / Claude Nozères and Virginie Roy. : Fs97-4/3207E-PDF

"Scientific stock assessment surveys in coastal areas record a number of marine fauna and macroalgae in addition to the target commercial species. This report documents in photos examples of at least 160 marine benthic invertebrate and fish taxa sampled on the Icelandic scallop (Chlamys islandica) drag survey in the Mingan Archipelago, near the north shore of the Gulf of St. Lawrence, from 2007 to 2018. Some photo identifications were tentative as several taxa require microscopic examination or genetic analyses for confirmation, particularly for invertebrates such as bryozoans, hydrozoans, and sponges (Porifera). Other groups were usually well-identified, especially among fishes, crustaceans and echinoderms. Some of the species seen in photos were new data records in the region or were unusual in size. Additional work is needed to clarify special cases in taxonomy or morphotypes. The continued use of photos for record validation is recommended, with increased attention for colonial organisms encrusting substrates, potentially important for the recruitment and survival of commercial scallops"--Abstract, page iv.
