Bauer1 1Department of Biology, University of Louisiana at Lafayette, Lafayette, Louisiana, 70504-2451 USA ABSTRACT. Amphidromy is a diadromous life history pattern, common in tropical and subtropical freshwater caridean shrimps, in which adults live, breed and spawn small-sized embryos in freshwater but have extended larval development (ELD) in marine waters. Most completely freshwater species spawn large embryos with either direct or abbreviated larval development (ALD). An important benefit of amphidromy is dispersal among river systems via marine larvae, which increases their access to alternative habitats. Thus, amphidromous species have much broader geographic distributions than closely related completely freshwater ones with ALD. ALD and freshwater ELD species appear to have evolved from amphidromous species with marine ancestors. Delivery of larvae to the sea in many amphidromous species is accomplished by upstream hatching and river drift of larvae to the sea. In other species, the females themselves apparently migrate down to marine waters to spawn. After development, the postlarvae must find a river mouth and migrate upstream to the adult habitat. Migrations occur at night, with juveniles swimming or crawling along the river or stream bank. Larvae are released during the wet or flood season of the year, while juvenile migrations take place during the dry or low-flow season.

C. P. 81101. Abstract Eyestalk ablation is the most common procedure used to induce crustacean reproduction in commercial hatcheries. However, other physiological and metabolic processes are affected by the removal of the X-organ sinus gland complex located in the eyestalk. In this study, the effect of unilateral eyestalk ablation on the concentration of several hemolymph metabolites, reproduction and immune function in female Macrobrachium americanum was investigated. Molting cycle time was not significantly P( =0.17) shortened in eyestalk-ablated females. However, an increased number of molts was observed in the eyestalk-ablated group because survival was significantly higher due to increased passivity and lowered aggression. As M. americanum has closed thelyca, reproduction was not accelerated after eyestalk ablation compared to control prawns. Food intake (P=0.007) and oxygen consumption (P=0.047) were both higher in eyestalk-ablated females. Concentrations of protein and glucose in hemolymph were not affected (P=0.54 and P=0.19, respectively), indicating that the demand for these metabolites was met. Glucose was metabolized by aerobic metabolism as shown by the lower lactate concentration (P=0.02) and higher respiration rate after ablation.

Reyes-Avalos, Walter1; Gladis Melgarejo-Velásquez, Gladis2; Rojas-González, Elizabeth2 RESUMEN El objetivo fue estudiar la maduración, muda y crecimiento de hembras de C. caementarius con ablación del pedúnculo ocular. Se emplearon 25 hembras con ovarios en estado II y en muda C y D1: 5 hembras con pedúnculos oculares intactos; 10 con ablación de un solo pedúnculo ocular y 10 con ablación de ambos pedúnculos oculares. El experimento duró 98 días y abarcó época no reproductiva. La ablación unilateral no afectó la maduración ovárica ni la duración del ciclo de muda, solo ocasionó reducido crecimiento por muda (4% en LC) y moderada mortalidad (40%). En cambio la ablación bilateral ocasionó maduración temprana (25 días), menor duración del ciclo de muda (22 días), mayor crecimiento por muda (8% en LC), alta mortalidad (65%) y cambios en la relaciones de las medidas morfométricas.

  • Employing Geographical Information Systems in Fisheries Management in the Mekong River: a Case Study of Lao PDR
    Employing Geographical Information Systems in Fisheries Management in the Mekong River: a case study of Lao PDR Kaviphone Phouthavongs A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirement for the Degree of Master of Science School of Geosciences University of Sydney June 2006 ABSTRACT The objective of this research is to employ Geographical Information Systems to fisheries management in the Mekong River Basin. The study uses artisanal fisheries practices in Khong district, Champasack province Lao PDR as a case study. The research focuses on integrating indigenous and scientific knowledge in fisheries management; how local communities use indigenous knowledge to access and manage their fish conservation zones; and the contribution of scientific knowledge to fishery co-management practices at village level. Specific attention is paid to how GIS can aid the integration of these two knowledge systems into a sustainable management system for fisheries resources. Fieldwork was conducted in three villages in the Khong district, Champasack province and Catch per Unit of Effort / hydro-acoustic data collected by the Living Aquatic Resources Research Centre was used to analyse and look at the differences and/or similarities between indigenous and scientific knowledge which can supplement each other and be used for small scale fisheries management. The results show that GIS has the potential not only for data storage and visualisation, but also as a tool to combine scientific and indigenous knowledge in digital maps. Integrating indigenous knowledge into a GIS framework can strengthen indigenous knowledge, from un processed data to information that scientists and decision-makers can easily access and use as a supplement to scientific knowledge in aquatic resource decision-making and planning across different levels.

Systematic status of the genus Puntius among Cyprinidae, the most prominent freshwater fish all over the world, remain to be substantiated. The molecular phylogenetic analyses derived from Recombination activating genesequences (RAG2) for 35 representative samples of Malaysian Puntius and their allies, indicated paraphyly of the genus Puntius among common cyprinid groups of Southeast Asia. At a larger scale, while the monophyly of Cyprinidae and the subfamily Cyprininae were confirmed, the monophyly of the tribe Barbinini, Cyprinini, or Puntius (Systomus) were not supported.

  • Seasonal Hydrology Shifts Production Sources Supporting Fishes in Rivers of the Lower Mekong Basin
    1342 ARTICLE Seasonal hydrology shifts production sources supporting fishes in rivers of the Lower Mekong Basin Chouly Ou and Kirk O. Winemiller Abstract: Seasonal hydrology is assumed to be an important reason why the Lower Mekong Basin supports highly productive and biodiverse inland fisheries. We used C and N stable isotope ratios of tissue samples to estimate primary production sources supporting fish biomass in the Mekong and three large tributaries in Cambodia. We used a Bayesian mixing model to estimate relative contributions of four alternative production sources — seston, benthic algae, riparian grasses, and riparian macro- phytes. There was little seasonal variation in isotopic signatures of riparian plants, but benthic algae and seston showed large seasonal shifts in carbon ratios. Seston and benthic algae were the most important production sources supporting fish biomass overall during the dry season, and riparian vegetation was the most important source during the wet season. Sources contributed differentially to biomass of trophic and habitat guilds, especially during the dry season. A dam on the upper Sesan River has changed hydrology, channel geomorphology, and other factors and, compared with the other three rivers, its fish biomass appears to derive from algae to a greater extent. Résumé : L’hydrologie saisonnière est présumée être une importante raison expliquant le fait que le bassin du cours inférieur du fleuve Mékong supporte des pêches continentales très productives et d’une grande biodiversité. Nous avons utilisé les rapports d’isotopes stables du C et du N d’échantillons de tissus pour estimer les sources de production primaire qui supportent la biomasse de poissons dans le Mékong et trois grands affluents au Cambodge.

  • Hypsibarbus Malcolmi Family Cyprinidae (Smith, 1945) Subfamily Cyprininae Tribe Systomini Subtribe Semiploti Genus Hypsibarbus Species Malcolmi
    printer friendly version Order Cypriniformes Hypsibarbus malcolmi Family Cyprinidae (Smith, 1945) Subfamily Cyprininae Tribe Systomini Subtribe Semiploti Genus Hypsibarbus Species malcolmi Migration patterns for important Mekong fish (8) back to species list Rainboth (1996) included six species of the genus Hypsibarbus in his book, Fishes of the Cambodian Mekong, and fur- ther indicated that seven species might occur within the Mekong River. Since species within this genus are difficult to separate just by looking at photographs, they are covered here as a single group. Local names reflect the similarities between the species, i.e., the same local name is often used for all species within the genus (e.g., in Cambodia it is ”trey Chhpin“). In fact, in Cambodia, Barbodes gonionotus is also called ”trey Chhpin“, indicating that there would even be some confusion in information between the two genera, Hypsibarbus and Barbodes. Similar problems probably occur in the Lao PDR, Thailand and Viet Nam. This obviously limits the species-specific conclusions that can be drawn for Hypsibarbus species. Therefore, only some general trends are discussed here for this group of fish. Below the Khone Falls, fishermen reported that this species group undertook short local migrations, including lateral migrations. The migrations were reportedly triggered by rising and receding water levels, respectively. At three stations, migration from flooded areas and back to the main river was reported to occur just before the full moon. Above the Khone Falls, in the Lao PDR and Thailand, there was contradictory information regarding migratory patterns, i.e., both upstream and downstream movements were reported during the onset of the monsoon season.

  • Chapter I: Introduction 1.1 General Introduction the Mekong River, Along with Its Fourteen Tributaries, Is an Essential Component of the Rural Community in Lao PDR
    Chapter I: Introduction 1.1 General introduction The Mekong River, along with its fourteen tributaries, is an essential component of the rural community in Lao PDR. It provides an important source of subsistence for the region, through the supply of animal protein for consumption, such as fish, shrimp, crabs, snails and other aquatic animals. Through fishing, the river provides essential employment and additional household income, as well as supplying water for transportation and agriculture. The decline in fish production in the Mekong River Basin is of increasing concern, not only at the national, but also regional and international levels. Rapid population growth and environmental changes due to the impact of human activity are most likely the main causes of decline in fish numbers (SEAFDEC 2001). Various studies have been undertaken to investigate these issues and to look for alternative solutions to sustainable use of aquatic resources. Fish biology data (fish migration, Catch Per Unit of Effort, hydro-acoustic surveys) and social data (fish production, fish consumption, fish marketing) alone are inadequate for planning and development of natural resources. Indigenous knowledge, however, has shown effective ways to manage fisheries resources in local communities. Differences are evident between the use of scientific based and local knowledge systems. Scientific knowledge is utilised by scientists and is used for decision making at a national level for planning and development. On the other hand, local communities have developed their own management systems based on observation and direct contact with the environment for sustainable development of their resources. However, indigenous knowledge alone is inadequate to deal with fish stock management and planning.
