SUMMARY: In order to estimate the abundance and the distribution of the anchovy in the Northwest Mediterranean, a standardised series of acoustic evaluation cruises was carried out in 1990, 1991, 1992, 1993 and 1995. The series showed that there was agreement between the biomass estimations and the registered landings in the area. On the other hand, some areas were identified where the recruits were largely localised. 1990, 1991, 1992, 1993 y 1995, para estimar la abundancia y distribución de la anchoa en el Noroeste del Mediterráneo. La serie mostró que hay consistencia entre las estimaciones de biomasa y los desembarcos registrados en el área. Por otro lado, se identificaron áreas en las que los reclutas son localizados mayoritariamente.Palabras clave: NW Mediterráneo, anchoa, estimación acústica.
