Sighting of the rare Poey’s scabbardfish, Evoxymetopon poeyi, in the Polynesian triangle
Abstract:Rapa Nui only allows artisanal fishery activities, but these often go unaware. The market is centralized on Pacific chub, snoek and yellowfin tuna, all common pelagic fish. On September 2016, one un-identified specimen was caught off-shore as by-catch, and left on the main port at Hanga Pik...
