Title

Electronic tag tracking data from starry smooth-hound Mustelus asterias in the northeast Atlantic 2004-2018

Abstract

The data is derived from the deployment of mark-recapture and electronic tags on starry smooth-hound (*Mustelus asterias*) in the North Sea and English Channel. Tags were deployed throughout the time period 2004 to 2018. The dataset includes 36 individual *M. asterias*, 18 of which were tagged with mark-recapture tags only, and 18 were tagging with both mark-recapture and electronic tags. Six electronically tagged *M. asterias* were geolocated and their estimated daily geographical locations (latitude and longitude) are provided. Depth and temperature data from these six *M. asterias *are also provided.

Lineage

Conventional Petersen disc and Data storage tags were attached to *M. asterias* between 2004 - 2018 around the southern UK coast. All tagging of *M. asterias* was funded by the European Maritime and Fisheries Fund project code ENG 1395.
