摘要:Between January 2004 and February 2007 a total of 714 Samson fish from three regions of
Western Australia were collected and processed for biological analyses (Figure 5.1). Fork length
(FL) of fish collected ranged from 26 (1.2 g) to 1470 mm (47 kg). The majority of these fish
were collected from spawning aggregations west of Rottnest Island (n = 317) and inshore waters
in the Perth metropolitan area (n = 168). Other samples were sourced from throughout this
species¡¯ range in WA, including 89 fish from the Geraldton region in the north and 129 fish from
southern coastal waters. Small juvenile fish (< 100 mm FL, n = 22) were commonly associated
with floating debris and jellyfish in offshore (> 20 km from the coast; 56%) and inshore (44%)
waters.
