Synopsis (short abstract) The Subregional Group on Stock Assessment in the Black Sea (SGSABS) met for the first time in Bucharest, Romania (14-16 January 2014) with the main objectives to: i) revise the status of the main fish stocks in the Black Sea, with focus on turbot and small pelagic stocks, and ii) review the existing data and stock assessment methods for main stocks in the area. SGSABS reviewed a total of eight Black Sea fish stocks/populations, providing conclusions and recommendations on stock identification/mi gration and on required data to improve stock advice, and providing advice on the status of stocks for those stocks for which a sound scientific assessment is available. SGSABS concluded that the population of turbot (Psetta maxima) is depleted at Black Sea scale, and subject to overfishing in Ukrainian waters, although local populations in that area do not yet show signs of depletion.
