Parapenaeus longirostris Spawning map in the south-central Mediterranean Sea

Data derives from the Fortibuoni's article, published on April 2010. This study investigates the bathymetric and spatial distribution of young-of-the-year and mature females of the deep-water rose shrimp, Parapenaeus longirostris, in the Strait of Sicily (Central Mediterranean Sea) in order to describe the species spawning areas. Data were obtained from trawl surveys carried out yearly in spring and autumn from 1994 to 2004, and nursery and spawning areas were inferred by means of GIS techniques.
