In the Bay of Biscay (BoB, Northeast Atlantic), a preexisting habitat suitability model (HSM) fitted on ecological scientific trawl survey data with restricted partial coverage revealed the concentration of Young of the Year (YoY) common sole (Solea solea) on restricted coastal and estuarine nurseries. To extend the nursery map of sole in the BoB to zones where survey data are lacking and fit with the sole population and stock management extent, we crossed HSM, fishers’ ecological knowledge (FEK) and fisheries-based (FB) data. FB and FEK data also complemented knowledge on juvenile sole habitat and seasonal migration. Thirteen fishers with potential knowledge about the YoY sole distribution were directly interviewed. Direct interviews included both information about the location of juveniles and YoY distribution mapping. With good consensus among fishers, FEK allowed the identification of four new areas hosting essential juvenile habitat for the common sole, revealed the accuracy of the HSM model outside the spatial coverage of the ecological survey, and provided spatial refinement. The FB observation data confirmed the locations of the essential juvenile habitats given by FEK and the spatial distributions of YoY densities predicted from the scientific data. In addition, FB confirmed the seasonal migration of YoY sole, which was preliminarily hypothesized from a local and short-term survey-based study. Our results emphasized the local accuracy of FEK. These findings also underlined the interest in combining several sources of data and methods to map essential fish habitats outside areas well covered by ecological scientific surveys, on order to inform future spatial management measures.
