Abstract

: Research on the U.S. Distinct Population Segment of smalltooth sawfish (Pristis pectinata) life history, abundance, habitat use, movements, and migration is necessary to promote and facilitate recovery. A multi-disciplinary approach focusing research on action items in the Smalltooth Sawfish Recovery Plan has occurred since 2009. One of the high priority tasks outlined in the plan is abundance and recruitment of juvenile sawfish. One of the most important regions for young-of-the-year and small juveniles is coastal southwest Florida. This database describes catch and environmental data taken in southwest Florida (Marco Island to Florida Bay) for 2009-current under protected species permits issued to SEFSC/NMFS 13330 (2009-2013) and 17787 (2014-2019).

Purpose:

To monitor the abundance and recruitment of the ESA-listed smalltooth sawfish (Pristis pectinata) in US waters.
