COMPARISON OF PROXIMATE COMPOSITION OF FIVE CYPRINIFORMES FISH SPECIES OF RIVER ACHENCOVIL SANALKUMAR M.G., *MAYALEKSHMI P., NANDAKUMAR S., *PADMAKUMARAN NAIR K.G., JAYALEKSHMY V AND VAISAKH S. Postgraduate and Research Centre, Department Of Zoology, *Department of Biochemistry N S S College, Pandalam, Kerala-689501, India. Correspondence to: [email protected] Abstract: The proximate compositions of five cypriniformes fish species of River Achenkovil were compared. In Barilius bakeri the protein, carbohydrate, lipid, cholesterol, ash and moisture contents (%) were estimated as 14.74, 0.05, 1.44 0.41, 3.16, and 78.92 respectively whereas triglyceride, phospholipids and freefattyacids content (%) were 0.02, 0.03 and 0.4, respectively. In Barilius gatensis the protein, carbohydrate, lipid, cholesterol, ash and moisture contents (%) were estimated as 13.25, 0.08, 1.30, 0.26, 3.20 and 78.46, respectively whereas triglyceride, phospholipids and freefattyacids content were 0.03, 0.1 and 0.42 respectively. In Garra mullya the protein, carbohydrate, lipid, cholesterol, ash and moisture contents (%) were estimated as 13.45, 0.04, 1.58, 0.20, 3.23 and 79.70, respectively whereas triglyceride, phospholipids and freefattyacids content were 0.06, 0.04 and 0.42 respectively. In Labeo dussumeiri the protein, carbohydrate, lipid, cholesterol, ash and moisture contents (%) were estimated as 13.40, 0.04, 1.45, 0.22, 3.59 and 78.70, respectively whereas triglyceride, phospholipids and freefattyacids content were 0.05, 0.03 and 0.34 respectively. In Puntius sarana the protein, carbohydrate, lipid, cholesterol, ash and moisture contents (%) were estimated as 12.94, 0.02, 1.44, 0.21, 3.20 and 79.32, respectively whereas triglyceride, phospholipids and freefattyacids content were 0.04, 0.03 and 0.43 respectively. The present study comparing the proximate composition of five cyprinid freshwater fishes of Achenkovil River show significant variation in their proximate composition. They constitute a high-protein, low-fat composition and are rich in various macro and micronutrients, hence may contain low calorie per unit of protein and can be considered as an ideal source of animal protein for use in healthy point of view. Key words: Biochemical composition, Cypriniformes, Barilius bakeri, Barilius gatensis, Garra mullya, Labeo dussumeiri, Puntius sarana, Achencovil river .

Aliens; a Catastrophe for Native Fresh Water Fish Diversity in Pakistan
The Journal of Animal and Plant Sciences, 21(2 Suppl.): 2011, Page: 435-440 ISSN: 1018-7081 ALIENS; A CATASTROPHE FOR NATIVE FRESH WATER FISH DIVERSITY IN PAKISTAN A. M. Khan, Z. Ali, S. Y. Shelly* Z. Ahmad** and M. R. Mirza** Department of Zoology, University of the Punjab, Lahore *Department of Fisheries, Government of Punjab, Munawan, Lahore. Department of Zoology, Government College University, Lahore Corresponding author e-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT Pakistan has introduced several alien exotic fish species e.g. grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idella), bighead carp, (Hypophthalmichthys nobilis), silver carp, (Hypophthalmichthys molitrix), common carp (Cyprinus carpio), gold fish (Carassius auratus), and three species of tilapia (Oreochromis aureus, Oreochromis mossambicus, Oreochromis niloticus) in warm waters along with two trout species: the rainbow trout (Onchorynchus mykiss) and the brown trout (Salmo trutta fario) in colder regions for specific purposes like sport fishing, yield enhancement and biological control of aquatic weeds and mosquitoes. The exotic species are becoming invasive in the freshwater biomes of the Punjab and other provinces of Pakistan by reason of their potent reproductive potential and feeding competitions with the native freshwater fish fauna. Resultantly the native fish species viz; Channa marulius, Wallago attu, Rita rita, Sperata sarwari, Gibelion catla, Cirrhinus mrigala and Labeo rohita, which are of economic value are under threat. Key words: Exotic, invasions, freshwater, fish fauna, Pakistan. wild, 421 (35 %) are reported as not established and 177 INTRODUCTION (15 %) with unknown establishment (Fish base, 2003). In Asia, there have been 406 introduction There are more than 186 freshwater fish species records, 176 (43.3 %) are reported as having been described from freshwater bodies of Pakistan.

ARTICLE INFORMATION ABSTRACT Corresponding Author: Fish production in Reservoir is directly or indirectly dependent on the abundance of plankton and Shailendra Sharma bottom fauna. The physico-chemical properties of water determine the quality and quantity of the fauna. The inland fisheries in India contribute nearly 1/3rd of the total fish production .But in total Article history: domestic supply its share is 57% in contrast to marine sector with 43% through the fish production Received: 19-01-2021 from inland sector having great significance in India. Fresh water fishes show variation in relation to Revised: 22-01-2021 habitat and geographical distribution. The biotic and abiotic factors and types of the Ecosystem Accepted: 30-01-2021 (lentic & lotic habitat) play main role in fish diversity. Age of the water body, mean depth, water Published: 03-02-2021 level fluctuation, dam design and marphometric feature have great ecological implications. During the present Survey of Narmada river 43 species of fishes were recorded which belong to 7 order, 14 Key words: families & 26 genera.

As there is a great variation in of life. Scales are dermal in origin. Scales consists of the aquatic ecosystem, hence, fishes show maximum diversity in form and calcified bony layer and no calcified fibrillar plate. The structure amongst the vertebrates. In the monitoring of aquatic scales are arranged differently in different regions on the environment fishes play a very important role. Amongst carps, body of a fish. The scales along the lateral line are perforated minnows are the inhabitants of clean, highly oxygenated and flowing waters. Their presence or absence reflects the water quality and by a canal through which opens the neuromast organs of overall health of the aquatic ecosystem. Minnows are considered to lateral line system. The scales along the bases of unpaired be excellent aquarium fishes because they show different colour fins are arranged in forms of tiles, thus giving an additional patterns.

APPLIED FISHERIES AND AQUACULTURE (Effective from 2019 Admission onwards) 2 M.Sc. Applied Fisheries and Aquaculture Scope of the Programme The program is designed as a four semester, two year programme under the Credit and Semester System. The programme will cater to the higher study opportunity for under graduate programmes in the related fields, in this university and other universities within the country and abroad. The fishing industry is in need of highly skilled man power and this programme will create the necessary skill sets among the aspiring students. The general skill sets attained will relate to Biology, Capture, Culture and Management of fisheries. The focus areas of this programme are Aquaculture Technology, Fisheries Business Management, Fish Capture Technology and Fish Processing Technology. Semester I covers such aspects as Taxonomy of fishes, Biochemistry, Biophysics and Research Methodology and Biostatistics and Computer Applications. The practical paper includes topics from all the four theory papers. In Semester II, the topics covered are Ecology of Aquatic Ecosystems and Inland Aquaculture, Ornamental Fisheries, Genetics and Biotechnology and Health Management in Aquaculture. Only one practical paper is assigned for this semester covering the experimental aspects of inland aquaculture, ornamental fisheries and health management. In Semester III, three theory courses are offered including Mariculture, Fish Nutrition and Microbiology & Quality Management. Two practical papers are offered in this semester. The first practical is on Aquaculture and Fish Nutrition while the second practical is on Fishery Microbiology and Quality Control. In addition the students have to undergo training in a reputed hatchery to understand the nuances of breeding and rearing of aquarium fishes and food fishes.
