| Abstract: | We examined advertisements for fishing nets and surveyed the mesh sizes and chemical compositions of the nets offered for sale by two major online markets in Brazil: AliExpress and Mercado Livre. Here, we discuss the ways in which this unregulated commerce facilitates illegal fishing and impacts biodiversity, and we provide suggestions for regulating the sale of fishing nets in Brazil. |
