    Abstract

    In the fishing season 2012/2013 Russian vessel “Yantar-35” worked in the Weddell Sea for the first time since fishery of Dissostichus mawsoni began. It has allowed extending a sampling area on biology of this species. In particular, size-age and growth samples of the Antarctic toothfish were collected in this sea.
