“…It is also important to highlight that management of these fisheries is conditioned by the seasonality of the life cycle of squid (Cabanellas-Reboredo, Alos, Palmer, March & O'Dor, 2012;Cabanellas-Reboredo, Alós, Palmer & Morales-Nin, 2012;Moreno, da Cunha & Pereira, 1994) and cuttlefish (Guerra, 2006a;Guerra & Castro, 1988), mainly related to their high rate of population renewal and reproductive behaviour (Otero et al, 2015;Roura et al, 2013;Sánchez & Martín, 1993). In particular, the complex reproductive cycle of European squid means this species is dependent on environmental conditions, which has important implications for fisheries management (González, Otero, Pierce & Guerra, 2010;Guerra, Allcock & Pereira, 2010;Roura et al, 2013).…”
