Samples were collected monthly with a shrimp fishing boat, from July/2010 to June/2011. The carcino-group bycatch was represented by 15 families, 24 genera and 30 species. The families with the highest number of species were Portunidae (7) and Penaeidae (5), representing 23.33% and 16.66% of the total catch, respectively. For each seabob shrimp captured, 2.94 bycatch individuals were caught on average, with the largest discrepant values in summer (1: 4.82) and autumn (1: 5.76). The main components of this carcinofauna (Artemesia longinaris and Pleoticus muelleri) are species with increasing importance as a fishery resource in the region due to their abundance, and need to be continuously studied over diverse aspects of population biology, aiming to improve conservation actions.611-624porBycatchDecapodaUpwelling phenomenonArtigo10.20950/1678-2305.2016v42n3p611Acesso restrito2-s2.0-84990945009
