摘要: Microplastic pollution has received increased attention over the last few years. This study documents microplastic ingestion in three commercially relevant demersal fish species from Spanish Atlantic and Mediterranean coasts, lesser spotted dogfish Scyliorhinus canicula, European hake Merluccius merluccius red mullet Mullus barbatus. Overall 212 were examined, 72 dogfish, 12 hakes 128 mullets. The percentage of with microplastics was 17.5% (15.3% 18.8% mullets 16.7% hakes), averaging 1.56±0.5 items per fish, size ranged 0.38 to 3.1mm. These are used currently as biomonitors for marine monitoring within Marine Pollution Monitoring Programme (SMP), may be well suitable candidates spatial temporal trends ingested litter. data presented here represent a baseline implementation Strategy Framework Directive descriptor 10 Spain.
