Note on the fisheries and biology of the golden crab (Chaceon fenneri) off the northern coast of Brazil
The occurrence of golden crabs (Chaceon fenneri) off the northern coast of Brazil was first reported in 2001. Since then, a few companies and boats have exploited this resource. In the state of Ceará, one company has been fishing for these crabs with a single boat since 2003. The production and fish...
