Abstract	The West Coast Hake Biomass Survey was conducted on the Africana Voyage 109 from 19 January to 08 February 1993. The objectives of the cruise were to survey by means of bottom trawling the abundance of hake and ither demersal species on the West Coast of South Africa; to investigate the environmental and ecological interrelationships of hake and other demersal species; to study the biology of chondrichthyan species; to investigate the evolution of chondrichthyan immune systems; to obtain coverage of chlorophyll-fluorescence distribution at the sea surface as part of an ongoing monitoring program; and lastly to obtain information on the hydrology and currents on the West Coast.
