Abstract
CHAVEZ, Leandro N; TAMINI, Leandro L; COPPA, Juan José and AGUILAR, Eduardo E. Asociación del Petrel de Anteojos (Procellaria conspicillata) con buques pesqueros en el Mar Argentino. Hornero [online]. 2014, vol.29, n.2, pp.73-79. ISSN 0073-3407.
Spectacled Petrel (Procellaria conspicillata) attending on fishing vessels in the Argentina Sea.- We report new sightings of Spectacled Petrel (Procellaria conspicillata) attending on fishing vessels in the Argentina Sea. Between 2008 and 2014, 18 individuals were observed in the Argentine-Uruguayan Common Fishing Zone and near the permanent closure zone to fishing common hake (Merluccius hubbsi). Most observations (75%) were made in the trawl operations with discards. We did not observe mortality; however, the species could be vulnerable to its incidental capture.
