Sumario:New preliminary data on deep-water corals and sponges from the 2023 EU, EU-Spain, and Portugal, as well as the 2022-2023 Canadian bottom trawl groundfish surveys, have been made available to improve the mapping of Vulnerable Marine Ecosystems (VMEs) indicator species in the NAFO Regulatory Area (Divs. 3LMNO). The results include distribution maps of new records of presence (both non-significant and significant catches) of VME indicator species by VME species group. Additionally, the species composition of VME taxa for significant catches has been included.
