| Considered a management unit: An aquatic resource or fishery is
declared as [Fishery] Management Unit if it is
effectively the focus for the application of selected
management methods and measures, within the broader
framework of a management system. According to the FAO
Glossary for Responsible Fishing, "a Fishery Management
Unit (FMU) is a fishery or a portion of a fishery
identified in a Fishery Management Plan (FMP) relevant
to the FMP's management objectives." FMU's may be
organised around fisheries biological, geographic,
economic, technical, social or ecological dimensions ,
and the makeup and attribute of a fishery management
unit depends mainly on the FMP's management
objectives. |
| Jurisdictional distribution: Jurisdictional qualifier (e.g.
"shared", "shared - highly migratory") of the aquatic
resource related with its spatial distribution. |
| Environmental group: Classification of the aquatic
resource according to the environmental group (e.g.
pelagic invertebrate, or demersal fish) to which the
species belong. |
| Reference Year: The Reference Year is the last year considered in the stock assessment and/or fishery status. |

Water Area OverviewCoastal shrimps - Democratic Republic of the Congo Aq Res Struct Biological Stock: Yes In these groups we include other fleets targeting Penaeus notialis, which were not considered in Section 6.3 of FAO, 2015, because the catch data available comprise a sum of species captured in the same zones and with the same fishing gears, but the catches have not been separated into species. The main species are Parapenaeopsis atlantica, Penaeus notialis and P. monodon combined. The Penaeus notialis is the most important species.

Bio Assess Assessment year: 2011 The CECAF Working Groups have adopted the following Biological Reference Points (BRPs): - Limit Reference points: BMSY and FMSY - Target Reference Points: B0.1 and F0.1 Stock status is assigned based on current estimates of fishing mortality (Fcur) and biomass (Bcur) relative to these target and limit reference points (Bcur/BMSY, Fcur/FMSY, Bcur/B0.1, Fcur/F0.1). The results from the stock assessment of this stock are found under the “Biological state and trend section”. Assess Models Type: Biomass-aggregated Schaefer dynamic production model The total catch and the CPUE of the Congolese artisanal fleet were used. Results The model is fitted to the data available. The Working Group has decided that the results are not realistic and rejects the assessment. Sci Advice The data provided to the Working Group for the Democratic Republic of Congo was insufficient to allow any analysis. Management Management unit: Yes Sources FAO. 2016.
