Sažetak
By its origin, living world and ecological characteristics, the Adriatic Sea is a part of the Mediterranean Sea as its northern bay. It is connected to the Mediterranean by the Otrant Straight, 72 km wide and 741 m deep. The deepest parts are the Apple basin with depth of 273 metres and the Southern Adriatic basin with a maximum depth of 1, 233 metres. Fisheries are an important element for the Republic of Croatia with 7% of total exports of agricultural products. With about 449 species and subspecies of fish, the Adriatic Sea is one of the richer seas, but only a small number of species are rich in biomass. The species of small blue fish are the largest in biomass and about another hundred species have fishery and economic importance. Species from the Sparidae family are of great economic importance and are targeted species for various types of fishing. The biology of blackspot seabream, Pagellus bogaraveo (Brünnich, 1768) in the eastern Adriatic has been reaserched with the aim of learning about the population dynamics of this species, because of its economic importance and role in coastal ichthyological communities. Specimens of blackspot seabream were collected from commercial and experimental catches in the eastern Adriatic sea. The results of the research contribute to a better understanding of the life cycle and management, breeding opportunities, conservation of the species and biodiversity of the Adriatic ichthyofauna.
