Spatial distribution of Illex argentinus in San Matias Gulf (Northern Patagonia, Argentina) in relation to environmental variables: A contribution to the new interpretation of the population structuring

Traditionally, it was assumed that major spawning activity of Illex argentinus occurs in discrete pulses along the outer-shelf/slope off Argentina/southern Brazil during late-fall/winter and that early life stages develop near the Brazil-Malvinas Confluence (BMC). However, a novel hypothesis of the...
