dc.description.abstractThe life history strategy of the Cape horse mackerel, Trachurus capensis in the southern Benguela, relating to distribution and reproductive ecology, was re-evaluated. It is possible that certain aspects of the species' life history may have changed since the previous assessment by Barange et al. (1998), as a result in this study, the conceptual hypotheses about the life history of horse mackerel proposed by Barange et al. (1998) were re-evaluated and possible revisions proposed. Distribution patterns were analysed using acoustic and midwater trawl data (1997-2010), and demersal trawl data (1984-2011) collected during biannual surveys of pelagic and demersal fish.en_ZA
