		Pelagic fish usually dominated, the catches except for the catches in the Angoche and Moebase areas where demersal fish constitute approximately 65% of the catch.
		At depths shallower than 25 meters, the Sciaenidae is the dominant group in Quelimane II, Quelimane I and Beira.
		In general, the main families in shallow waters (above 25 m) are Sciaenidae, Mullidae and Trichiuridae and in deeper waters (below 25 m), Mullidae is the dominant family.

	Using Passive Acoustics to Monitor Spawning of Fishes in the Drum Family (Sciaenidae)
		Drum fish (Family Sciaenidae) are known for their sound production during mating, from which the family derives its name (Fish and Mowbray 1970).
		Members of the drum family are dominant species in the large and valuable commercial and recreational fisheries in North Carolina and the Southeastern USA.
		Because sounds are produced by male fishes in the Sciaenidae in communication during courtship and spawning, we are able to use these sounds as an indicator of spawning areas.

		Historical trends in nearshore croaker (family Sciaenidae) populations in southern California from 1977 through 1998
		Although croakers (Sciaenidae) are important members of the nearshore environment, most of the knowledge about their population trends has come from changes in commercial fishery landings and recreational fishery catches.
		Although yellowfin croaker abundance and biomass were higher during the warmer period, most species catches decreased during this period.
