    Abstract

    Scientific data were obtained during the fishery cruise of Spanish long-liner «Tronio» in the areas of the Ross Sea and the Antarctic continental shelf (statistical subareas 88.1 and 58.4.1) outside the exclusive (marine) economic zones of foreign states, in the period from 5 November, 2007 till 24 March, 2008. In the paper size characteristics of Antarctic and Patagonian toothfishes caught in different areas of the Antarctic shelf were given as well as characteristics of maturity level of gonads and nutrition of the examined fish.
