Abstract

Authors suppose the amounts of fraudulent seafood sales reported in recent years to be somehow correlated to the problems of Italian com-mercial fish-naming policy. However, given the lack of data and stud-ies, the work has an exploratory nature focusing on three main issues: the seafood labeling policy framework, the evolution of lists of fish species’ trade names and the spread and type of fraudulent sales. Ac-cording data authors believe that the fish-naming system is improving, however that lack of studies estimating the right amount of diversifica-tion in trade names for marine species seems so to be a weakness for a winning policy. Furthermore, seafood retailers seems to assume an important role on fraud management and government should support research for innovative species detection methods to be applied direct-ly in retailers quality insurance systems. This would be a win-win strat-egy, preventing fraudulent behaviour and reducing the costs for public inspections.
