(1) Main species are those where the total value landed into the
UK or by
UK vessels abroad was
£2m or more in 2015.
(2) The reduction in value for some demersal species in 2014
is due to a lack of sales notes from foreign vessel landings in to
the
UK and does not reflect a
genuine decrease in the value.
