(1) Total length (carapace length).
(2) 30 cm for industrial purposes only.
(3) With effect from 1 January 2002 a carapace length of 87 mm shall apply.
(4) It is prohibited to land more than 15 %, in number, of swordfish below 25 kg, or 125 cm.
(5) It is prohibited to land more than 15 %, in number, of bluefin tuna below 6,4 kg or 70 cm. In addition, it is prohibited to land any individual bluefin tuna below 1,8 kg.
ANNEX XIII
MEASUREMENT OF THE SIZE OF A MARINE ORGANISM
1. The size of any fish shall be measured, as shown in Figure 1, from the tip of the snout to the end of the tail fin.
2. The size of a Norway lobster shall be measured as shown in Figure 2:
- as the length of the carapace, parallel to the midline, from the back of either eye socket to the distal edge of the carapace, and/or,
- as the total length, from the tip of the rostrum to the rear end of the telson, not including the setae, and/or,
- in the case of detached Norway lobster tails: from the front edge of the first tail segment present to the rear end of the telson, not including the setae. The tail shall be measured flat, unstretched and on the dorsal side.
3. The size of a lobster or crawfish from Regions 1 to 5 except Skagerrak/Kattegat shall be measured as shown in Figure 3, as the length of the carapace, parallel to the midline, from the back of either eye socket to the distal edge of the carapace.
4. The size of a lobster from Skagerrak or Kattegat shall be measured as shown in Figure 3:
- as the length of the carapace, parallel to the midline, from the back of either eye socket to the distal edge of the carapace, and/or,
- as the total length, from the tip of the rostrum to the rear end of the telson, not including the setae.
5. The size of a spinous spider crab or an edible crab shall be measured as shown in Figures 4A and 4B respectively, as the minimum width of the carapace measured perpendicular to the antero-posterior midline of the carapace.
6. The size of any bivalve mollusc shall be measured as shown in Figure 5, across the longest part of the shell.
7. The size of a whelk shall be measured as shown in Figure 6 as the length of the shell.
