    Résumé

    The analysis of catch size composition, statistical data on catches and distribution of Antarctic tooth-fish, and tagging data showed that the existing system of fishing subarea partition into SSRUs, open and closed for fishery, resulted in a lack of overall picture of population structure state, quantitative toothfish distribution over the whole aquatory in Divisions 88.1 and 58.4 and did not give an idea of toothfish migrations by tagging results. The mentioned system shortcomings require its revision and conducting of fishery, investigations on toothfish distribution over the whole areal and account of the stock state.
