Sumario:This dataset presents information on fish eggs and larval abundances at different layers of the water column in two surveys carried out in June and November 2005 in the NW Mediterranean Sea. The vertical distributions of fish early stages of ca. 60 taxa was investigated. The larvae of the majority of shelf species that appeared in summer showed a very superficial vertical distribution, above the thermocline, the DFM and the maximum biomass of micro- and mesoplankton, and showed no signs of diel migrations along the water column. In autumn, the vertical distributions patterns of fish larvae were slightly wider
