Sažetak
In recent years, efforts to conserve elasmobranch species have revived the interest in this diverse and important group of fishes. Squatina squatina is a critically endangered species with severely depleted population in the eastern Adriatic Sea. Historically, this species has been relatively abundant throughout the Adriatic Sea with Northern Adriatic being notable for the high amounts of landing of this species. Motivated by the scarcity of data on S. squatina and the need for urgent measures aimed at conservation of this endangered animal, we employed an online survey in order to investigate fishermen knowledge on the recent status and geographical distribution of S. squatina in the eastern Adriatic. A total of 367 fishermen participated in the survey and provided information on both recent and historical catches and sightings of the species. In addition, we present new records of this species brought to the attention of scientist by fishermen and citizens. Both data sources consistently indicate the hotspot of Squatina squatina in the relatively small area of the central Adriatic and the presence of female specimens bearing well- developed pups, as well as the presence of juveniles and newborn specimens, underline the importance of this area for this emblematic species.
