Resumen:
The Patagonian scallop Zygochlamys patagonica (King, 1832) is the key species of a
fishery developed in the shelf break front of the SW Atlantic Ocean since 1996.
The identification of invertebrate by-catch and the continuous monitoring of
the benthic community associated with the Patagonian scallop were main goals of
a complete management strategy. The exploration cruises developed one year
before the beginning of the fishery (in 1995) established solid baseline
information that allowed the characterization of the benthic community in the
main Patagonian scallop fishing grounds, that totalize 72 invertebrate taxa in
the shelf break system (Bremec & Lasta,
2002; Bremec et al., 1998).
