Fishery survey in 1949 in the Gulf of Lion (North-West Mediterranean)

This dataset contains an inventory of the benthic fauna of the Gulf of Lion by bottom trawling. The objectives are not known. We assume that this is an exploratory seabed trawling survey to assess the fishing possibilities in the region with this type of gear. We know that the inventory was hand-written by Jacques Ancellin (director of the Boulogne-sur-Mer laboratory after the Second World War and he joined the OSTPM in 1942). Only species presence was recorded.本数据集收录了通过底拖网（bottom trawling）采样获取的里昂湾（Gulf of Lion）底栖动物（benthic fauna）名录。该调查的具体目标尚未明确。我们推测本次调查属于探索性海底拖网调查，旨在评估该区域使用此类渔具的捕捞潜力。经确认，该名录由雅克·安西兰（Jacques Ancellin）手写完成，他于二战后担任滨海布洛涅（Boulogne-sur-Mer）实验室主任，并于1942年加入OSTPM。本次调查仅记录了物种的存在情况。
