A catch assessment survey to monitor the landed elasmobranchs was enforced at the Viareggio harbour, the more important fishing port of the Tyrrhenian and Ligurian seas. Monthly data of catches by species and gear, size structure of the catches and spatial information on fishing effort distribution were collected over the period 1990-2001. Data on catch rates and geographical distribution of species were also collected with trawl-surveys carried out each year in the same area in the period 1985-2001. For the most important chondrichthyan species, the distribution of the fishing effort for every main fishing strategy was compared with catch rates of trawl surveys. The analysed species were two batoids: Raja asterias and Raja clavata and two ...
