  abstract = {{A}rtisanal fisheries in the {A}mazon are probably as dispersed and variable as those in any hydrographic basin. {D}iversity is of a biological nature (presence and abundance of species), as well as of an economic and social nature (proximity of markets, cultural habits, etc). {A}n initial study of biological aspects of {A}mazonian fisheries conclude that there was significant and widespread under exploitation of resources, although for some species, indications of possible over exploitation existed. {A} reevaluation of this first assessment given in this paper, shows that the total yield was probably underestimated previously. {N}evertheless the general under exploitation of resources, although for some species, indications of possible over exploitation existed. {A} reevaluation of this first assessment given in this paper, shows that the total yield was probably underestimated previously. {N}evertheless the general under exploitation is confirmed. {A} tentative approach is made to apply the global {M}aximum {S}ustainable {Y}ield model. {T}he result is not compatible with the previous conclusion, probably because the overall effort does not apply uniformly to the different species. {F}urther investigations appear to be necessary, particularly those dealing with environmental influences on capture.
