This includes shrimps, lobsters, crabs, bivalves, gastropods, cephalopods, sea cucumbers, sharks, batoid fishes, bony fishes, and sea turtles. Each resource group is introduced by a general section on technical terms and measurements pertinent to that group and an illustrated guide to orders and families of the group. The more important species are treated in a subsequent guide that includes scientific nomenclature, FAO names in English and French (were available), local names used in Kenya, diagnostic features, one or more illustrations, maximum size, and notes on fisheries and habitat. The guide is fully indexed and a list of further literature is appended. ' ISBN 978-92-5-107239-4 ISSN 1020-6868 e eTh\ II I I riC\ II I !

The shallow coastal area of Khanh Hoa province is often covered by seagrass beds especially in Cam Ranh bay area where the seagrass beds have concentrated distribution with the superficies up to more than 1000 ha, there are 6 common species of seagrasses have been found there, among them Enhalus acoroides which has long leaves (1-2 m), dense density (40- 100 shoots/m2) and high cover (70-100%) is dominant.

Review known spawning areas for pelagic and invertebrate species, with the aim of evaluating these sites as candidate spawning refugia. 2. Evaluate each of the project’s habitat demonstration sites as potential juvenile/pre-recruit refugia for significant demersal species. Rationale for the Two-Track Approach to the Identification of Fisheries Refugia The two main life history events for fished species are reproduction and recruitment. It was noted by the RSTC that both of these events involve movement between areas, and some species, often pelagic fishes, migrate to particular spawning areas. It was also noted that many species also utilise specific coastal habitats such as coral reefs, seagrass, and mangroves as nursery areas. In terms of the effects of fishing, most populations of fished species are particularly vulnerable to the impacts of high levels of fishing effort in areas and at times where there are high abundances of (a) stock in spawning condition, (b) juveniles and pre-recruits, or (c) pre-recruits migrating to fishing grounds.
