  • Status of Taal Lake Fishery Resources with Emphasis on the Endemic Freshwater Sardine, Sardinella Tawilis (Herre, 1927)
    The Philippine Journal of Fisheries 25Volume (1): 128-135 24 (1-2): _____ January-June 2018 JanuaryDOI 10.31398/tpjf/25.1.2017C0017 - December 2017 Status of Taal Lake Fishery Resources with Emphasis on the Endemic Freshwater Sardine, Sardinella tawilis (Herre, 1927) Maria Theresa M. Mutia1,*, Myla C. Muyot1,, Francisco B. Torres Jr.1, Charice M. Faminialagao1 1National Fisheries Research and Development Institute, 101 Corporate Bldg., Mother Ignacia St., South Triangle, Quezon City ABSTRACT Assessment of fisheries in Taal Lake was conducted from 1996-2000 and 2008-2011 to know the status of the commercially important fishes with emphasis on the endemic freshwater sardine,Sardinella tawilis. Results of the fish landed catch survey in 11 coastal towns of the lake showed a decreasing fish harvest in the open fisheries from 1,420 MT to 460 MT in 1996 to 2011. Inventory of fisherfolk, boat, and gear also decreased to 16%, 7%, and 39%, respectively from 1998 to 2011. The most dominant gear is gill net which is about 53% of the total gear used in the lake with a declining catch per unit effort (CPUE) of 11kg/day to 4 kg/day from 1997 to 2011. Active gear such as motorized push net, ring net, and beach seine also operated in the lake with a CPUE ranging from 48 kg/day to 2,504 kg/day. There were 43 fish species identified in which S. tawilis dominated the catch for the last decade. However, its harvest also declined from 744 to 71 mt in 1996 to 2011. The presence of alien species such as jaguar fish, pangasius, and black-chinned tilapia amplified in 2009.

  • An Assessment of the Endo-Parasites of Littoral Fish from Lake Taal, Batangas, Philippines
    RESEARCH PAPER | Philippine Journal of Systematic Biology An Assessment of the Endo-parasites of Littoral Fish from Lake Taal, Batangas, Philippines Alyssa Charisse I. Capuchino1, Jacelle Andrea A. Portugal1, Jona Marie S. Raymundo1, Gil A. Cauyan1,2 and Jonathan Carlo A. Briones1, 2, 3,4 ABSTRACT Fish parasites are ecological important because of their significant contributions to ecosystem integrity. This has gained the attention of both scientists and policy makers globally, but is not yet as evident in the Philippine setting. This is because the practical application of such knowledge requires a strong basal foundation on parasite biodiversity research, which has waned in the country in the last decades because of the retirement and passing of many prominent Filipino parasitologists. We aimed to contribute to the information on Philippine fish parasite biodiversity by surveying the par- asites of various littoral fish species in Lake Taal - the third largest lake in the country. Fish were sampled in the lake from July to September 2015 through the aid of local fish- ermen, who employed gill nets and beach seines in the lake’s littoral areas. From these, 711 specimens were gathered and necropsied for helminth endo-parasites. Parasites were retrieved from 4 of 16 fish species, with low prevalence and mean burden ob- served. Three parasite genera were identified, namely Opegaster sp. (Platyhelminthes: Opecoelidae), Camallanus sp. (Nematoda: Camallanidae), and Andracantha sp. (Acanthocephala: Polymorphidae). Andracantha sp. is the first report of its genera from KEY WORDS : Philippine fish, providing a contribution to the present Philippine parasite biodiversity listing, while Opegaster sp. represents a potential target species for biological lake Andracantha monitoring because of its wide presence among gobiids throughout the country, as well Opegaster as its transmission specificity.

BAUN Abstract Sardines (Clupeidae) make up a substantial proportion of the fish catch across the Philippines and consequently are the most accessible source of animal protein for millions of Filipinos. Further, this fishery is an economic engine providing thousands of jobs and generating revenue at the individual, municipal, and national levels. Ecologically, sardines are basally positioned in a food web that supports pelagic tuna and mackerel, as well as numerous sea birds and marine mammals. Philippine sardine biodiversity is among the highest in the world and includes the only known freshwater sardine species.

South Pacific Commission, Nouméa, New Caledonia The Oceanic Fisheries Programme of the South Pacific Commission is currently pursuing a research project on age and growth of two tropical tuna species, yellowfm tuna (Thunnus albacares) and bigeye tuna (Thunnus obesus). The daily periodicity of microincrements forrned with the sagittal otoliths of these two spceies has been validated by oxytetracycline marking in previous studies. These validation studies have come from fishes within three regions of the Pacific (eastem, central and western tropical Pacific).

A total of 540 Fish feeding biology studies are important for many several samples, composed of two size-classes, were collected monthly from reasons. They provide better understanding of trophic January – June 2010, from three sampling points in Taal Lake in the relationship among different species in a specific aquatic morning, noon and afternoon periods. These were analyzed for gut ecosystem, thus they prove useful in the preliminary estimation content and zooplankton analyses in the laboratory. Results revealed that the major diet of S. tawilis in Taal Lake contained different types of trophic levels [3],[4]. These trophic models will then be of zooplankton including cladocerans, calanoid copepods, cyclopoid used as tools to understand complex coastal ecosystems. These copepods, nauplii, rotifers, ostracods, and various species of studies are also useful in defining predator-prey relationships, protozoans and small fishes. The current study showed that copepods where they may also result in the establishment and were the most abundant at ~45–57%, followed by the cladocerans identification of stable food preferences specific for a species ranging from 28–31% also in both size classes.

  • Three Essays on Meta-Analysis, Benefit Transfer, and Recreation Use Valuation
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION OF Arvin B. Vista for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Forest Resources presented on June 10, 2010. Title: Three Essays on Meta-Analysis, Benefit Transfer, and Recreation Use Valuation. Abstract approved: _____________________________________________________________________ Randall S. Rosenberger This dissertation consists of three essays on meta-analysis, benefit transfer and recreation use valuation. The first two essays were based on the sportsfishing valuation literature in the US and Canada while the third essay was based on a study site in the Philippines and selected study sites from the US. The first essay evaluates the aggregation structure of primary research studies and its implications for benefit transfer using meta-regression analysis. Results indicate that single-site and regional studies should not be pooled without accounting for their differences in a meta- analysis. The second essay examines the implications of addressing dependency in the sportsfishing valuation literature using meta-regression analysis. Results indicate that median absolute percentage transfer error is lower for the meta-regression models based on a single value, i.e. average-set and best-set metadata than the meta-regression models based on all-set. The average-set and best-set are two treatments of the metadata for avoiding dependency. The third essay applies the methodological treatments learned from the first two essays to estimate the recreational value via benefit transfer of Taal Volcano Protected Landscape
