Citation

National Institute of Oceanography and Experimental Geophysics (OGS), Italy; Italian National Institute for Environmental Protection and Research (ISPRA), Italy; (2017): Historical landings from the Trieste (Italy) fish market between 1902 and 1968 https://dx.doi.org/10.14284/291 accessed via GBIF.org on 2025-07-17.

Description

Historical landings from the Trieste (currently Italy) fish market for the period 1902-1968 (with some temporal gaps) were retrieved and entered in a digital format from the official statistical bulletin (paper format) of the Municipality of Trieste. At that time, Trieste fish market was one of the most important in the area together with Rijeka (currently Croatia) and Venice (Italy).

Additional info

Almost all fish caught in the Northern Adriatic Sea at time was sold in these fish markets. The dataset contains information on 177 marketed categories (6,790 records). Marketed categories may include one or more species. Multispecies categories usually group taxonomically similar species, i.e. species of the same genus or family. The taxonomic resolution of landings changed over time, from a minimum number of 107 (1902) to a maximum of 140 categories (1920). Species were reported with their scientific names that were updated referring to the World Register of Marine Species (WoRMS). Data is referred to the local consumption originated from local capture sea- and freshwater-fisheries.
