Argyrosomus regius (Asso, 1801) View in CoL
A Meagre, Sciaenidae ( Fig. 5G View Figure 5 ), was spearfished on 17 Aug 2019 by Mr Vincent Ravel off Île Verte and Raguénez (ca. 47.769°N, 3.798°W, Névez, Finistère), at about 10 m depth ( Dembele, 2019). The catch was filmed ( Ravel, 2019). The specimen measured 155 cm TL and may have weighed 30-35 kg. Its head has been prepared for the fisher by the taxidermist Bernard Bourles ( Gentric, 2019). Recorded by S.P. Iglésias. Previously, on 14 Aug 2017, a Meagre of 155 cm, estimated to weigh about 25-35 kg, was spearfished by Mr Godefroy Arnaud off Groix Island (Brittany, northern Bay of Biscay) ( Anonymous, 2017). Another individual 150 cm long, 32 kg was spearfished on 27 Aug 2016 by Mr Emmanuel Prigent at a hundred meters off the rocks of Saint-Guénolé at Penmarc’h (47.818°N, 4.385°W, Finistère), at 10-12 m depth ( Anonymous, 2016). Meagre captures are nowadays uncommon in Brittany and the capture of large individuals is exceptional, whereas the species was considered locally “quite common” in the early 20 th century ( Fabre-Domergue, 1902; Guérin-Ganivet, 1912; Burban, 2019). Its rarefaction may reflect the vulnerability of this large species to overfishing.
