Résumé L’espèce dulçaquicole Paretroplus polyactis connu sous le nom de Masovoatoaka est une espèce endémique de la Côte Est de Madagascar. Elle est parmi les espèces de poisson très appréciées et très recherchées des Betsimisaraka. Mais pourtant au niveau du commerce, l’offre de ce produit est inférieure à la demande et le ravitaillement est assuré par la pêche encore traditionnelle. Des enquêtes ont été menées sur terrain pour savoir sur la situation de la pêche continentale et sur l’espèce étudiée. Et les résultats de ces enquêtes ont montré que : − il y a trois types de pêcheurs mais la technique de la pêche est encore traditionnelle avec des outils rudimentaires ; − les pêcheurs ne s’intéressent pas à la pêche des Masovoatoka et; − l’exploitation abusive des pêcheurs sur le canal des pangalanes entraine le risque de la disparition de plusieurs espèces aquacoles surtout l’espèce Paretroplus polyactis , une espèce à résilience limitée. L’apport des aides aux pêcheurs ainsi que le lancement de l’aquaculture de Masovoatoaka semblent être une bonne solution pour remédier aux problèmes de ces personnes et de cette espèce. Et le résultat de l’analyse financière du projet d’élevage artisanale a démontré que le projet est financièrement acceptable et économiquement viable tout en préservant l’espèce cible. Abstract The freshwater species Paretroplus polyactis known to Masovoatoaka is endemic to the east coast of Madagascar. It is among the species of fish highly valued and highly sought-Betsimisaraka. Yet at the level of trade, supply of this product is less than demand and supply is provided by the fishing is still traditional. Surveys were conducted on ground to see a little more on inland fisheries and the species studied. And the results of these surveys showed that: − There are three types of fishing but the technique of fishing is still traditional with rudimentary tools − Fishermen are not interested in fishing for Masovoatoaka − Abuse of fishermen on the canal Pangalanes causes the risk of the disappearance of several aquaculture species especially the species Paretroplus polyactis which is a species with limited resilience. The contribution of aid to fishermen and the launch of Aquaculture Masovoatoaka seem to be a good solution to address the problems of these people and this species. And the result of the financial analysis of the breeding project has demonstrated that the craft project is financially acceptable and economically viable while preserving the target species.

  • Schedule "A" Project #4
    Schedule "A" Project #4 PROJECT SUMMARY PROJECT TITLE: Toronto Zoo Conservation in Action: Lake Tseny, Madagascar PURPOSE: To provide matching funds for zoo keeper Tim McCaskie to participate in the Madagascar conservation program in Madagascar in October, 2014. PROJECT OUTLINE: In 2014 with the support of ESRF, the objective is to conduct a mark-recapture study in Lake Tseny and census the cichlid community in October. The second objective for 2014 field season to study Sauvagella robusta (Clupeidae). Very little is known of this fish. Initial investigations will study habitat and census the local fishers for information. The Toronto Zoo and Denver Zoo team have a partnership with local biologists Madagasikara Voakajy and Antananarivo University. Our information will be used by the Madagascar government biologists to manage the Lake Tseny fishery. We plan to provide Madagasikara Voakajy- (Madagascar NGO for animal conservation) http://www.madagasikara-voakajy.org with our results and harvesting guidelines so they can be used to implement a fishery plan with the Malagasy government. Our team has considerable history working with this NGO over the several years of this in situ conservation project. BACKGROUND: The unique fauna and flora of Madagascar are considered a global conservation priority as these ecosystems face unsustainable resource use. This proposal builds upon the work of Dr. Paul Loiselle, a leading ichthyologist at the New York Aquarium. He has worked on Malagasy fishes for close to two decades and is a champion within the zoo and aquarium community for these endangered freshwater fishes. In 2004, a cichlid species of fish (Paretroplus menarambo) was considered extinct in Madagascar.

  • Species Composition and Invasion Risks of Alien Ornamental Freshwater
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Species composition and invasion risks of alien ornamental freshwater fshes from pet stores in Klang Valley, Malaysia Abdulwakil Olawale Saba1,2, Ahmad Ismail1, Syaizwan Zahmir Zulkifi1, Muhammad Rasul Abdullah Halim3, Noor Azrizal Abdul Wahid4 & Mohammad Noor Azmai Amal1* The ornamental fsh trade has been considered as one of the most important routes of invasive alien fsh introduction into native freshwater ecosystems. Therefore, the species composition and invasion risks of fsh species from 60 freshwater fsh pet stores in Klang Valley, Malaysia were studied. A checklist of taxa belonging to 18 orders, 53 families, and 251 species of alien fshes was documented. Fish Invasiveness Screening Test (FIST) showed that seven (30.43%), eight (34.78%) and eight (34.78%) species were considered to be high, medium and low invasion risks, respectively. After the calibration of the Fish Invasiveness Screening Kit (FISK) v2 using the Receiver Operating Characteristics, a threshold value of 17 for distinguishing between invasive and non-invasive fshes was identifed. As a result, nine species (39.13%) were of high invasion risk. In this study, we found that non-native fshes dominated (85.66%) the freshwater ornamental trade in Klang Valley, while FISK is a more robust tool in assessing the risk of invasion, and for the most part, its outcome was commensurate with FIST. This study, for the frst time, revealed the number of high-risk ornamental fsh species that give an awareness of possible future invasion if unmonitored in Klang Valley, Malaysia. As a global hobby, fshkeeping is cherished by both young and old people.

Paretroplus dambabe, a new cichlid fish (Teleostei: Cichlidae) from northwestern Madagascar, with a discussion on the status of P. petiti John S. Sparks Division of Vertebrate Zoology, American Museum of Natural History, Central Park West at 79th Street, New York, NY 10024-5192, U.S.A., e-mail: [email protected] Abstract. —Paretroplus dambabe, n. sp., is described from Lake Kinkony, northwestern Madagascar. The new species is distinguished from congeners in Hfe and preservation by light yellowish-oUve body coloration in combination with a series of 6-7 vertical charcoal bars on the flanks, a blunt head profile, body depth not exceeding 57.1%SL, and uniform dark charcoal-gray or black fins. Paretroplus dambabe is further distinguished from P. petiti, a species to which it has been mistakenly referred for decades, by overall pigmentation pattern (light yellow-olive vs. dark brown), the presence of bright red pigmen- tation on the flanks in life, a prominent vertical barring pattern, and a shallower body.
