Study revealed the Accepted: 30-03-2017 occurrence of 19 species of larvivorous fish from 5 orders, 10 families and 13 genera. Order cypriniformes was the most dominant group among the orders Keywords: followed by bagridae and channidae. Family cyprinidae belongs to the order Biological control, cypriniformes was the most dominant group with 7 species among the other Conservation. Integrated families. According to the IUCN (2016) red list of threatened species, 78.94 % vector control management of species are at least concern, 10.52% are at not assessed, 5.26% are near program, Larvivorous fish. threatened and for 5.26 % of species data is deficient. As per the CAMP report (1998), 17 species are at least concern, 1 species is at near threatened and for 1 species data is deficient. Out of 19 larvivorous fish, 9 species are commonly available in the River, 9 are abundant and 1 species is rarely available. 16 varieties of fishes are food fishes of which 10 species are cultivable augmenting multiple benefits for the stake holders. Several anthropogenic activities including pollution, habitat loss, human interference and over exploitation are seriously affecting these fish fauna. Proper conservation measures should be adopted to mitigate the loss of these valuable fish species as these fish can be widely used component in integrated vector control management program. INTRODUCTION Sometimes these chemicals have adverse Mosquito borne diseases such as encephalitis, environmental consequences to various non-target equine infectious malaria, yellow fever, dengue and species (Gupta and Banerjee, 2013). Physical filariasis are continue to be major problems in control measures are also expensive and time almost all tropical and subtropical countries consuming. Biological control which includes (Chandra et al., 2008). In India, chemical, physical manipulation of animals suppresses the mosquito and biological control measures have been in larval population naturally through predation, practice to reduce the incidence of mosquito borne parasitism and competition (Chandra et al., 2008). diseases (Ghosh and Dash, 2007). However, Fish that are predators of various stages of mosquito chemical control measures pollute nearby aquatic larvae referred to as larvivorous fish have been the ecosystems, expensive and require much skilled most successful intervention amongst various manpower for constant surveillance of mosquito biological control agents utilized against mosquito breeding habitats (Martínez-Ibarra et al., 2002). borne diseases. Use of the larvivorous fish in http://jbsd.in 184 ISSN: 2229-3469 (Print) Govinda Rao K. et al., malaria control in India is not new but a half- mosquito larval control agents. Considering the forgotten strategy (Ghosh and Dash, 2007). Many growing importance of native fish fauna as types of larvivorous fish have been used in mosquito larval control agents, the present study biological control programs across the world was conducted to document native larvivorous fish (Walton, 2007). According to Sharma (1984), who fauna of River Krishna (Figure 1) at Prakasam provided a detailed list of 315 native larvivorous barrage (16º 30’ 22’’ N and 80º 36’ 18’’ E) in fish species of 32 genera under 6 families from Vijayawada, Andhra Pradesh, India. different continents, larvivorous fish are used as a major component of the integrated malaria control MATERIALS AND METHODS programme in India. Gambusia affinis and Poecilia The present study was conducted for a period of one reticulata are the two introduced, live-bearing year from March, 2016 to February, 2017. Monthly poecilid species which are most successful and sampling by covering all seasons was carried out in effective for vector control but, due to their negative the River. Experimental fishing was carried out with impact on the aquatic environment and indigenous the help of artisanal fishermen using different types aquatic fauna, several indigenous fish species have of craft and gear. Nets namely cast nets, gill nets, been evaluated to assess their larval predation drag nets and scoop nets were used. Fishes were efficiency and various native larvivorous fish also collected from catches of local fisher folk at the species are gaining much attention as biological same sampling sites. Local fish markets and landing control agents in vector control management. centers located near the river were also visited to Krishna et al. (2016) reported 29 species of collect the fish. Normally 2 – 4 specimens for each larvivorous fish from 6 orders, 14 families and 20 species were collected for morphometric and genera from Lake Kolleru. Rao et al. (2015) meristic studies. Photographs were taken reported 22 larvivorous fish from 8 orders from immediately by Nikon camera (Model D90) in the Lake Kolleru and assessed the mosquito larval field itself prior to preservation.

  • Improvement in Performance of a Downstream Barrage Due to a New Balancing Reservoir Upstream
    International Journal of Advances in Science Engineering and Technology, ISSN: 2321-9009, Vol-5, Iss-3, Spl. Issue-1 Aug.-2017 http://iraj.in IMPROVEMENT IN PERFORMANCE OF A DOWNSTREAM BARRAGE DUE TO A NEW BALANCING RESERVOIR UPSTREAM 1KASIVISWANADH GORTHI, 2VISWESWARARAO MUKKAMALA 1Jawaharlal Nehru Technological University Hyderabad; 2Mallareddy Institute of Technology, Hyderabad, India E-mail: [email protected], [email protected] Abstract- Prakasam Barrage is a tail end barrage on Krishna river situated at Vijayawada in Andhra Pradesh. Entire delta irrigation is catered by this structure. The flows of about 100 TMC from the catchment between Nagarjunasagar(NSP) a upstream reservoir and Prakasam barrage and regulated releases of 52.2 TMC are to be used for this project. A balancing reservoir at Pulichintala is constructed to utilise the intermediate yield effectively and to stabilise the irrigation under Krishna delta. This paper studies the improvement of Krishna delta system due to Pulichintala. The Integrated operation of NSP and Prakasam Barrage is done without Pulichintala considering the net inflows in to NSP after ultimate development and the demands planned under NSP and Prakasam Barrage using Mike basin and excel . The Pulichintala project is then introduced and the integrated operation of the three components are done. In both cases Standard Linear operation policy adopted. However in the 2ndscenario no releases are made to Prakasam Barrage from NSP if water is available at Pulichintala. The releases from Pulichintala in the 2ndscenario and releases from NSP in the first scenario to Prakasam Barrage are worked out considering the contributions from the respective intermediate catchments namely Pulichintala to Prakasam Barrage and NSP to Prakasam Barrage respectively.

  • 6. Water Quality ------61 6.1 Surface Water Quality Observations ------61 6.2 Ground Water Quality Observations ------62 7
    Version 2.0 Krishna Basin Preface Optimal management of water resources is the necessity of time in the wake of development and growing need of population of India. The National Water Policy of India (2002) recognizes that development and management of water resources need to be governed by national perspectives in order to develop and conserve the scarce water resources in an integrated and environmentally sound basis. The policy emphasizes the need for effective management of water resources by intensifying research efforts in use of remote sensing technology and developing an information system. In this reference a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) was signed on December 3, 2008 between the Central Water Commission (CWC) and National Remote Sensing Centre (NRSC), Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) to execute the project “Generation of Database and Implementation of Web enabled Water resources Information System in the Country” short named as India-WRIS WebGIS. India-WRIS WebGIS has been developed and is in public domain since December 2010 (www.india- wris.nrsc.gov.in). It provides a ‘Single Window solution’ for all water resources data and information in a standardized national GIS framework and allow users to search, access, visualize, understand and analyze comprehensive and contextual water resources data and information for planning, development and Integrated Water Resources Management (IWRM). Basin is recognized as the ideal and practical unit of water resources management because it allows the holistic understanding of upstream-downstream hydrological interactions and solutions for management for all competing sectors of water demand. The practice of basin planning has developed due to the changing demands on river systems and the changing conditions of rivers by human interventions.
