This paper proposes a monitoring plan for the European eel (Anguilla anguilla) in Sicily, building on a 2021 proposal intended to feed into a Regional Eel Management Plan and ultimately the National Management Plan under EC Regulation 1100/2007. It describes diversified sampling methods and time-frames for different eel life stages (juveniles, yellow, and silver) and identifies the most suitable local environments (rivers, lakes, marshes) by area of the island. The authors report that the proposed plan was accepted by the Sicilian Administration and implemented by the University of Catania, with only a reduction in the number of environments, while noting the preprint has not been peer reviewed. The paper does not explicitly discuss endometriosis or adenomyosis; it was included in the corpus via a keyword match in the upstream search index.

Abstract

We outline a monitoring plan for European eel that has been proposed in 2021, as part of of the preparatory activities for the elaboration of the Regional Eel Management Plan for Sicily (project FEAMP OP 2014/2020, MEASURE 2.49, Sicilian Regional Administration), to be included in the National Management Plan (Regulation EC 1100/2007). Sampling methods and time-frames diversified for juveniles, yellow and silver eels were suggested. Furthermore, for each area of the island, the most suitable environments (rivers, lakes, marshes) to be investigated were identified. The proposed monitoring plan turned out to be valid, in fact it was accepted by the Sicilian Administration and was carried out by the University of Catania, with only a reduction in the number of environments.
