This report summarizes the work carried out in the framework of FAO/COPEMED to study dolphinfish fishery in the Mediterranean during 2000-2001 fishing seasons. The work has comprised both a knowledge transfer and a preliminary assessment of the stock in Mediterranean waters. The training part has been carried out in several workshops and hands on exercises. The field data were collected in Malta and Tunisia, while in 2001 the data were also collected in Sicily and Majorca, with the aim of having a general analysis of the fishery in the same year. The final exercise consisted in an exploratory evaluation of the data and of the stock state. The joint analysis of the data is justified by the genetic homogeinity found in dolphinfish along its Mediterranean distribution (C.Pla, Girona University ump.data).

The field data were collected in Malta and Tunisia, while in 2001 the data were also collected in Sicily and Majorca, with the aim of having a general analysis of the fishery in the same year. The final exercise consisted in an exploratory evaluation of the data and of the stock state.
