Spanish term or phrase: Fauna acompañante, pesca incidental o captura incidental
I am translating legislative texts on the development of Aquaculture and Fishing. These terms all seem to mean by-catch (in the contexts of vessel catching), but I have a feeling they may be distinguished. This is in this definition section of the legislation (terms in alphabetical order).

This is the definition given:
"Se refiere a las especies y fauna marina que son capturadas junto a la pesca dirigida u objetivo."

Explanation:
Bycatch (or by-catch), in the fishing industry, is a fish or other marine species that is caught unintentionally while fishing for specific species or sizes of wildlife. Bycatch is either the wrong species, the wrong sex, or is undersized or juveniles of the target species.

it you need synonyms "incindental catch"

n fishing, incidental catch is that part of the catch which was not originally targeted, but was caught and retained anyway.

and just to round it out, you could also use "unintnentional catch"

Incidental catch means any fish unintentionally caught in a person's fishing gearthat is not the primary target for which that person's fishing gear is set;.
