Overview Pterapogon kauderni is a small marine fish endemic to the Banggai Archipelago off Central Sulawesi, eastern Indonesia (Allen and Steene, 2005; Vagelli and Erdmann, 2002). The species has an extremely restricted range of c. 5,500 km2 and occurs as isolated small populations in the shallows of 34 islands (Vagelli, 2011). The species has been subject to heavy collection pressure for the aquarium trade, with annual harvests reportedly having reached 900.000 fish/year in 2007 (Vagelli, 2008; 2011). The species’ biological characteristics make it vulnerable to overexploitation (low fecundity, extended parental care, and a lack of planktonic phase that precludes dispersal). A reported widespread decline in the abundance of * The geographical designations employed in this document do not imply the expression of any opinion whatsoever on the part of the CITES Secretariat (or the United Nations Environment Programme) concerning the legal status of any country, territory, or area, or concerning the delimitation of its frontiers or boundaries.

  • Diadema Setosum
    1 Feeding preferences of the sea urchin Diadema 2 setosum (Leske, 1778) in Taklong Island National 3 Marine Reserve, Guimaras, Philippines 4 Jennelle Christianne S. Luza1, Maria Celia D. Malay1, 5 1 Division of Biological Sciences, College of Arts and Sciences, University of the Philippines 6 Visayas, Miagao, Iloilo, Philippines 7 8 Corresponding Author: 9 Jennelle Christianne Luza1 10 Brgy. Inzo Arnaldo Village, Roxas City, Capiz, 5800, Philippines 11 Email address: [email protected] 12 13 14 Abstract 15 Background. Sea urchins are keystone herbivores that greatly influence primary productivity, 16 algal abundance and scleractinian coral recruitment. The long-spined black sea urchin Diadema 17 setosum is widespread and abundant in reef flats throughout the Philippines. Prior studies 18 regarding the feeding preference of D. setosum have been conducted overseas, but little is known 19 about the impact of the echinoid herbivory on reef flat communities in the Philippines. Feeding 20 preferences of D. setosum on four common marine plant species, Halimeda macroloba, 21 Ceratodictyon spongiosum, Padina sp., and Enhalus acoroides were investigated at the 22 University of the Philippines Visayas Marine Biological Laboratory, located in Taklong Island 23 National Marine Reserve (TINMR), Guimaras. 24 Methods. Two food choice experiments were conducted; choice feeding and no-choice feeding. 25 The outcome of choice feeding experiments, expressed as consumption (in g) and percent 26 consumption (%), were used to determine its feeding preferences. The two most preferred feeds 27 determined were then used in no-choice feeding experiment to measure its consumption rate 28 (g⸱echinoid-1⸱hr-1). 29 Results.

  • Monitoring the Banggai Cardinalfish, an Endangered Restricted Range Endemic Species
    Journal of Indonesia Coral Reefs 1(2) (2011) 99-113 Printed ISSN : 2089-8231 Monitoring the Banggai Cardinalfish, an Endangered Restricted Range Endemic Species Abigail Moore, 1* Samliok Ndobe 2 and Muhammad Zamrud 3 1 Fisheries and Marine Science Institute, Palu, Indonesia 2 Aquaculture Study Program, Tadulako University, Palu, Indonesia 3 Banggai Fish Quarantine Office, Indonesia Abstrak Di lingkungan laut hanya sedikit biota yang bersifat endemik. Salah satu yang menarik perhatian adalah Banggai cardinalfish (Pterapogon kauderni, Koumans 1933), sering disingkat BCF, adalah jenis yang berasoisasi dengan ekosistem terumbu karang, endemik di perairan dangkal (kedalaman 0-5m) di sekitar Kepulauan Banggai, Indonesia. Sama halnya dengan kebanyakan wilayah Coral Triangle (Segitiga Karang), perairan pesisir tersebut mengalami tekanan antropogenik yang berat dan beragam. P. kauderni yang diperdagangan sebagai ikan hias, dimasukkan dalam kategori “Endangered” (terancam punah) pada IUCN Red-List dengan permanfaatan berlebih dan degradasi habitat sebagai ancaman utama. Tahun 2007 usulan untuk didaftarkan pada Lampiran II CITES tidak berhasil, kemudian suatu Rencana Aksi/Action Plan (RA-BCF/BCF-AP) tersusun dan pelestarian BCF menjadi salah satu sasaran Indonesian Coral Triangle Initiative National Plan of Action (CTI-NPOA). Monitoring umumnya dipandang sebagai bagian inti suatu sistem pengelolaan yang efektif. Dalam RA-BCF diharapkan agar monitoring biofisik maupun sosio-ekonomi terhadap perdagangan, populasi dan habitat akan mendukung perkembangan perikanan ikan hias bersifat berkelanjutan sekaligus mewujudkan kelestarian Banggai cardinalfish. Tinjauan terhadap sistem-sistem monitoring yang terbentuk, aktivitas yang terlaksana serta data yang diperoleh menunjukkan beberapa kecenderungan, termasuk peningkatan nyata dalam tingkat ketaatan terhadap aturan karantina yang berlaku, dan perubahan positif lainnya dalam pola pemanfaatan P.
