Description:This assessment focuses on the central subpopulation of northern anchovy (CSNA), a small, short-lived coastal pelagic fsh, which ranges from roughly northern California, USA to central Baja California, Mexico. There is a northern subpopulation, which ranges from waters of British Columbia, Canada to Cape Mendocino, CA, USA, and a southern subpopulation, which is found in waters of central Baja California to the Gulf of California, Mexico. The subpopulations have been found to have distinct meristic and serological characteristics (McHugh 1951, Vrooman et al. 1981). CSNA are typically found in waters ranging from 11° to 29° C (Lo 1985), and the three subpopulations do not seem to be genetically distinct (Lecomte et al. 2004). This assessment is focused on fshery and survey information available for CSNA.
