Abstract
The paper proposes a unified approach to ichthyologic expertise of Pacific salmon and products of them. Criteria identification of Pacific salmon and their caviar, both fresh and after technological processing to species are presented. A standard form of expert conclusion after the ichthyologic expertise is proposed. The algorithm for assessment of losses for the Pacific salmon stocks as a result of illegal fishing (catch), taking into account the associated factors – passing days (hours, periods), prohibited areas for fishing, in provided.
