Description

This form supports the reporting of the matrix of presence of species in the retained catches and discards of each fishing fleet and gear group. For each species/gear combination, the cell must be filled with either a value of one (1) in case of positive catch or a value of zero (0) in case of absence of catch (i.e., no landing and no discard). Species include IOTC species, mobulid rays, common sharks, and other bycatch species.
