Abstract | An annotated species of crustacean Decapoda list is provided for the Montenegrin territorial waters according to the available scientific literature, official reports, and from data collected from the MEDITS trawl surveys performed on continental shelf and continental slope in summer months from 2008 to 2018. Species are collected mainly by bottom trawl net but also with other various sampling methods such as trammel nets, gillnets, crustacean traps as well as scuba diving techniques. A total of 95 species belonging to 37 families is reported. Data on distribution and findings in Montenegrin territorial waters, Adriatic distribution, literature, and potential commercial interest for fishery are presented for the most significant species. |
