Foreword i FOREWORD I am pleased to introduce the National Recreational and Indigenous Fishing Survey, a work that has been several years and many millions of dollars in the making. It is a work commissioned by the Commonwealth Government that will be a central plank in the formulation of Government policy that relates to recreational, charter, indigenous, and commercial fishing now and in the future. This survey comes at a very important time in the management of Australia’s fisheries. I have recently enjoyed the privilege of developing and releasing on behalf of the Howard Government Looking to the Future: A Review of Commonwealth Fisheries Policy which, among other things, identifies as a priority issue resource sharing between various sectors that access publicly owned fisheries resources managed by the Commonwealth Government. I am pleased to record here that substantial progress has already been made on development of the resource-sharing framework. This survey will feed directly into that framework and we will see a fully transparent process to allocate rights and responsibilities to all users of Australia’s publicly owned fisheries resources. These rights will convey greater access security to users other than commercial operators who already operate under a statutory regime, and with those strengthened rights will come heightened responsibility. The 1994 A National Policy for Recreational Fishing in Australia stated that “Fisheries management decisions should be based on sound information, including fish biology, fishing activity, catches, and the economic and social values of recreational fishing.” This survey will now finally allow for this to occur for the good of Australia’s resources at both the State and Territories level as well as the Commonwealth level. I am exceptionally proud that the Howard Government has been the first Government of Australia in my memory that has tackled, and continues to tackle the difficult and often unpopular fisheries management issues that have for too long been thrown into the “too hard basket.” In my capacity as the Commonwealth Fisheries Minister, I am committed to pursuing this philosophy of making the right decisions early in the piece to minimise future angst and maximise conservation goals. I believe that a mature and cooperative approach will continue to develop between, and be adopted by, all fisheries stakeholders in fisheries management in this country, be they lovers of catching, eating or conserving fish. My vision is for future generations to enjoy the same opportunities as we of this generation currently enjoy. For many years it has only been the commercial sector of the fishing industry that has had to collect data used in the management of our nation’s fisheries. With this new data on recreational and indigenous fishing that this survey has provided I am confident we can further enhance Australia’s world leading fisheries management practices. The strong support that this survey received from the Australian community is an indicator of the importance of fishing of all types to our island continent, and this support will continue to be matched by the Howard Government in the pursuit of ecologically sustainable fisheries for all Australians now and in the future. Ian Macdonald Minister for Fisheries, Forestry and Conservation National Recreational and Indigenous Fishing Survey FAP Project FRDC Project No. 99/158 ii Acknowledgements ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Many people in Australia contributed to the development and implementation of the national recreational and indigenous fishing survey. Senior research and management staff from Commonwealth and State government agencies, recreational and commercial fishing associations, environmental and indigenous groups were responsible for developing the concept, securing the funding, determining the outputs and progressing the concept to the implementation stage. The foresight, hard work and support of these people is gratefully acknowledged. Following agreement on the methodology, a smaller team of people was formed to conduct the survey. This team recruited and trained staff, supervised the collection, collation and editing of data and managed the survey on a daily basis as an independent project within their own States/ Territories. Members of the implementation team (listed below) undertook the substantial body of work required to complete the survey. Their persistence and dedication is greatly appreciated by everyone associated with the project. A number of people deserve special mention. Laurie West, the survey design consultant, Jeremy Lyle and David McGlennon provided intellectual rigour and attention to detail that was fundamental to the success of the project. Jeff Murphy managed the complex tasks associated with data manipulation. Their efforts are greatly appreciated by team members. Finally, the assistance of the interviewer staff and the cooperation of many thousands of recreational and indigenous fishers is gratefully acknowledged.

    Jassim & Al-Salim Vol. 4 (1): 1-6, 2020 Lamellodiscus iraqensis Sp. Nov. (Monogenea: Diplectanidae) from Gills of Acanthopagrus arabicus (Teleostei: Sparidae) from Iraqi Marine Waters Abdul-Amer R. Jassim¹ & Nadirah K. Al-Salim² ¹Department of Biological Evaluation in the Shatt Al-Arab River and North-West of the Arabian Gulf, Marine Science Centre, University of Basrah, Basrah, Iraq ²Department of Fisheries and Marine Resources, College of Agriculture, University of Basrah, Basrah, Iraq *Corresponding author: [email protected] Abstract: Lamellodiscus iraqensis sp. nov. is described from the gills of Arabian yellowfin seabream Acanthopagrus arabicus Iwatsuki (Sparidae) captured from marine waters of Iraq. The new species belongs to the "elegans" group within the genus Lamellodiscus and it is distinguished from other species of this genus by some morphological features, especially the shape of the male copulatory organ (MCO). With the present new species (L. iraqensis) a total of 61 valid Lamellodiscus species are so far known in the World. Keywords: Monogenea, Diplectanidae, Lamellodiscus iraqensis, Acanthopagrus arabicus, Iraqi marine waters. Introduction Fishes of the family Sparidae have been considered as of great commercial and marketing table fishes (Froese & Pauly, 2019). Ali et al. (2018) mentioned there are 11 valid species of sparids in Iraq. Acanthopagrus arabicus is one of the most important fishes in Iraq. The genus Lamellodiscus Johnston et Tiegs, 1922 (Monogenea: Diplectanidae) is composed of 61 described species (Ogawa & Egusa, 1978; Kritsky et al., 2000; Neifar et al., 2004; Amine et al., 2006a, b, 2007a, b; Neifar, 2008; Boudaya et al., 2009; Justine & Briand, 2010; Diamanka et al., 2011a, b; Machkewskyi et al., 2014; Kritsky & Bakenhaster, 2019), that have been mainly studied in sparids.

The impact on and temporal Atmospheric Research, GPO Box 1538, Hobart responses of the biota to change are less well understood, but appear to be due to TAS 7001, Australia, 3Tasmanian Aquaculture influences of climate, as well as the non-climate related past and continuing human and Fisheries Institute, Private Bag 49, Hobart impacts. We attempt to resolve the agents of change by examining major temporal TAS 7001, Australia and distributional shifts in the fish fauna and making a tentative attribution of causal factors. Location Temperate seas of south-eastern Australia. Methods Mixed data sources synthesized from published accounts, scientific surveys, spearfishing and angling competitions, commercial catches and underwa- ter photographic records, from the ‘late 1800s’ to the ‘present’, were examined to determine shifts in coastal fish distributions. Results Forty-five species, representing 27 families (about 30% of the inshore fish families occurring in the region), exhibited major distributional shifts thought to be climate related. These are distributed across the following categories: species previously rare or unlisted (12), with expanded ranges (23) and/or abundance increases (30), expanded populations in south-eastern Tasmania (16) and extra- limital vagrants (4).

Moyano Received: 31 January 2017; Accepted: 5 May 2017; Published: 13 May 2017 Abstract: Silvery-black porgy (Sparidentex hasta) is recognized as one of the most promising fish species for aquaculture diversification in the Persian Gulf and the Oman Sea regions. In this regard, S. hasta has received considerable attention, and nutritional studies focused on establishing the nutritional requirements for improving diet formulation have been conducted during recent years. Considering the results from different dose–response nutritional studies on macronutrient requirements conducted in this species, it can be concluded that diets containing ca. 48% crude protein, 15% crude lipid, 15% carbohydrates and 20 KJ g−1 gross energy are recommended for on-growing S. hasta juveniles. In addition, the optimum essential amino acid profile for this species (expressed as g 16 g N−1), should be approximately arginine 5.3, lysine 6.0, threonine 5.2, histidine 2.5, isoleucine 4.6, leucine 5.4, methionine + cysteine 4.0 (in a diet containing 0.6 cysteine), phenylalanine + tyrosine 5.6 (in a diet containing 1.9 tyrosine), tryptophan 1.0 and valine 4.6.
