Biological information Morphology, growth, reproduction and recruitment 4 Almost nothing is known of rattail age, growth rates and age at maturity or recruitment. Preliminary studies have found, however, that some species may be long-lived (70 years). 5 Big-eye grenadier is a brownish grey species, averaging about 40cm and reaching at least 60cm. 6 White grenadier is a pale brownish-white species with an elongated pointed snout. It averages 50-60cm reaching a maximum length of at least 80 cm. It can provide edible fillets. 7 Two saddle grenadier is one of the most common species of rattail and averages 35- 45cm in length. 8 Ridge-scaled grenadier is a large fish with a maximum reported size of 100cm and a maximum age of 19 years. It is medium brown to straw coloured. Spatial and temporal distribution and key areas (feeding, spawning, migration) 9 Big-eye grenadier is endemic to New Zealand and is caught at depths of 350-800m, but particularly between 400 – 600m. 10 White grenadier is found at depths of 600 – 1200m around New Zealand and southern Australia. 11 Two saddle grenadier is caught in coastal waters at depths of 50 – 350m. 12 Ridge-scaled grenadier is found at depths of 200 – 1200m. It is widely distributed in sub-Antarctic and temperate waters off South Africa, South America and New Zealand. Habitat interactions 13 No specific information is available. Associated species (bycatch and target) 14 Rattails are taken as bycatch in a large number of middle-depth and deepwater fisheries targeting QMS species. Environmental conditions 15 No information is available. Protected species interactions 16 None known. Stock Assessment 17 There are no estimates of current or reference biomass, or sustainable yield for any rattail species or stock. 53
