ABSTRACT The fish samples for the present study were collected from the Kanjiracode Kadavu Lake, Kollam during September 2017 to February 2018. A total of 19 species belonging to 18 families and 19 genera were collected from the study area during the present study. Diversity of fishes and threats to the fauna are discussed Key words: Thevally kadavu, fish diversity, threats. INTRODUCTION Fishes, one of the important component in the aquatic ecosystem and plays a significant role in the economy. The tropical aquatic system bestowed with diverse fish species . They occupy a significant position in the socio – economic fabric of the south Asian countries by providing the population not only the nutrients food but also income and employment opportunities. Forty per cent of the total catch of fishes in India is obtained from the Kerala State. An expert committee constituted by the Govt. of Kerala has strongly advocated transformations of the backwaters, reservoirs, lakes, ponds ,tanks etc in to fish farms. Information on the abundance and distribution of fishes forms the basic step in assessing the fishery resources and their management in aquatic biotopes. A comprehensive survey of the fishery resources of the lakes, rivers etc of Kerala has become essential for the effective management, planned exploitation and scientific conservation of these highly productive water bodies. India is endowed with a vast expanse of open inland waters in the form of rivers, canals, estuaries, natural and man made lakes, back waters, mangrove wetlands.

  • 9 State Forest Management and Biodiversity: a Case of Kerala, India
    9 State Forest Management and Biodiversity: A Case of Kerala, India Ellyn K. DAMAYANTI & MASUDA Misa 1. Introduction Republic of India is the seventh largest country in the world, covering an area of 3,287,263 km2.has large and diverse forest resources in 633,397 km2 of forest covers or 19.27% of land areas (ICFRE, 2003; FAO, 2003). Forest types in India vary from topical rainforest in northeastern India, to desert and thorn forests in Gujarat and Rajasthan; mangrove forests in West Bengal, Orissa and other coastal areas; and dry alpine forests in the western Himalaya. The most common forest types are tropical moist deciduous forest, tropical dry deciduous forests, and wet tropical evergreen forests. India has a large network of protected areas, including 89 national parks and around 497 wildlife sanctuaries (MoEF, 2005). India has long history in forest management. The first formal government approach to forest management can be traced to the enactment of the National Forest Policy of 1894, revised in 1952 and once again revised in 1988, which envisaged community involvement in the protection and regeneration of forest (MoEF, 2003). Even having large and diverse forest resources, India’s national goal is to have a minimum of one-third of the total land area of the country under forest or tree cover (MoEF, 1988). In management of state forests, the National Forest Policy, 1988 emphasizes schemes and projects, which interfere with forests that clothe slopes; catchments of rivers, lakes, and reservoirs, geologically unstable terrain and such other ecologically sensitive areas, should be severely restricted.
