SPATIO -TEMPORAL CATCH VARIATION OF THE SPINY LOBSTER (PALINURUS ELEPHAS): IMPLICATIONS FOR THE MANAGEMENT IN CALVI/CAP CORSE

The spiny lobster (Palinurus elephas, Fabricius, 1787) is an emblematic species of the Mediterranean Sea. The main objective
of this study will be to improve the state of knowledge on the exploitation of this species in Calvi/Cap Corse. The artisanal fishing
of spiny lobster in the study area has remained relatively stable (CPUE) in recent years (2004
