Common coastal food fishes of the Pacific Islands region

This dataset contains approximately 320 of the most commonly targeted coastal sharks, rays and bony fishes in the Pacific Islands region. It is based on the Identification guide to the common coastal food fishes of the Pacific Islands region (Brad Moore and Boris Colas) produced by the Pacific Community (SPC) to assist fisheries officers with the identification of the common coastal food fishes encountered in catches or during market surveys (http://www.spc.int/coastfish/en/component/content/article/465).

This application has been produced with financial assistance from the Australian Government Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade and the European Union through the ‘Scientific Support for the Management of Coastal and Oceanic Fisheries in the Pacific Islands Region’ (‘SciCOFish’) project.
