species |
|
| Taxon | Population size and geographic range | Current legal status of protection | Main threats | Information gaps | Proposed measures in situ / ex situ | Implementing authority | Operational targets |
| Crabs (about 14 species) |
30-50 % of reference level, shallow water shelf basin wide | All in red book | Overharvesting | None | Moratorium on harvesting | Ministries of EP of all Black Sea countries | Removal, by scavenging, of dead corpses Reduce microbial pollution |
| Shrimps (more than 20 species) |
40 % of reference level, basin wide | None | Hypoxia Fished for bait |
Lack of quantitative surveys | Regulate fishing Aquaculture recommended for largest species (e.g. Palaemon rectirostris) |
Ministries of EP and Ministries of Fisheries of all Black Sea countries | Create a new economic resource |
