Resumo(s)
A prospective survey was carried out in October - November of 2000, in the Cape Verde
archipelago, by the R/V ARQUIPÉLAGO. The main objective was to determine the
species composition and relative abundance of the demersal fish resources living in the
waters of the Cape Verde archipelago. A list of fishes caught with bottom longline during
the survey is presented in this document, along with information about the area, depth
limits and the relative abundance of the species in the catches. Ninety-seven different species from 49 families were identified from 20 long-line sets. To our knowledge, the following 12 species were recorded for the first time from the waters of Cape Verde islands: Etmopterus princeps, Etmopterus pusillus, Gymnothorax maderensis, Myroconger compressus, Laemonema robustum, Beryx splendens, Scorpaena elongata, Serranus
atricauda, Taractes rubescens, Taracthichthys longipinnis, Pagrus africanus and Cathidermis sufflamen. The species Laemonema robustum, were new to the CLOFETA
area.
