SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The goal 

of this webinar is to understand the 

importance of Atlantic chub mackerel 

(Scomber colias) to the diets of highly 

migratory species (HMS) predators in 

U.S. waters, with a focus on 

recreationally-important predators such 

as large tunas and billfish. The 

objectives of the meeting are to: (1) 

Convene a panel of scientific experts on 

HMS diets, (2) clarify what is known 

about the importance of chub mackerel 

to HMS diets based on currently 

available data, and (3) develop 

recommendations for future studies to 

quantify the role of chub mackerel in 

HMS diets. Meeting these objectives 

will help the Council analyze the 

potential impacts of chub mackerel 

management alternatives on HMS 

predators as well as on recreational 

fisheries for those predators. The 

Council is developing a chub mackerel 

amendment to the Mackerel, Squid, and 

Butterfish Fishery Management Plan. 

More information on the amendment is 

available at: http://www.mafmc.org/ 

actions/chub-mackerel-amendment. To
