TABLE 1. Location of the sampled stations, total catch recorded (in wet weight) and Porifera contribution to the recorded catch (in % kg of wet weight) and number of sponge taxa recorded per station. Data modified from the technical reports Schejter (2012) and Gaitán et al. (2014). ND: not determined. * sponges were important components of the catch after a visual examination. # two specimens of Tetractinellida were recorded in this station.
