Australia country information

Common names: Deepsea dory, Deepwater dory, Mirror dory
Occurrence: native
Salinity: marine
Abundance: abundant (always seen in some numbers) | Ref: Kailola, P.J., M.J. Williams, P.C. Stewart, R.E. Reichelt, A. McNee and C. Grieve, 1993
Importance: commercial | Ref: Kailola, P.J., M.J. Williams, P.C. Stewart, R.E. Reichelt, A. McNee and C. Grieve, 1993
Aquaculture: never/rarely | Ref: Kailola, P.J., M.J. Williams, P.C. Stewart, R.E. Reichelt, A. McNee and C. Grieve, 1993
Regulations: restricted | Ref: Kailola, P.J., M.J. Williams, P.C. Stewart, R.E. Reichelt, A. McNee and C. Grieve, 1993
Uses: no uses
Comments: Occurs throughout the continental shelf and upper slope waters off southern Australia from Broken Bay in New South Wales to the North West Shelf of Western Australia (Ref. 6390). Also reported from the Lord Howe Island (Ref. 75154). Commercial fishery: Mirror dory are caught only by vessels using demersal otter trawls. The main Australian fishery is located off New South Wales and eastern Victoria, although some catch is taken throughout other areas of the South East Fishery. Catches of mirror dory in the South East Fishery ranged between 370 t and 460 t between 1986-87 and 1989-90. Small amounts are also caught in the Great Australian Bight Trawl Fishery, the Western Deepwater Trawl Fishery and the North West Slope Trawl Fishery. Up until 1992, the mirror dory catch was mainly taken as bycatch of the winter fishery for gemfish (Rexea solandri). The catch consisted of mature fish, between 40 and 50 cm total length (Ref. 27114). Mirror dory are also taken throughout the year as a bycatch of trawling for various continental slope species. Mirror dory species are sold on the domestic fresh fish market as a whole fish. Recreational fishery: Mirror dory are rarely caught by anglers because of the depths they inhabit. Resource status: Up to 1993, catches of mirror dory in southeastern Australian waters were relatively stable although there is some evidence of irregular recruitment (Ref. 27114). Lack of biological information has precluded any estimates of biomass or sustainable yield (Ref. 27114). Museum: NTM S.10752-010 (TGT3229).
