Black-bellied anglerfish (Lophius budegassa) in divisions 8.c and 9.a (Cantabrian Sea and Atlantic Iberian waters)

ICES advises on the basis of the MSY approach that landings should be no more than 1153 t in 2014. Combined landings of Lophius piscatorius and Lophius budegassa should be no more than 2629 t in 2014. Discards are known to take place but cannot be quantified; therefore, total catches cannot be calculated.
