Over its more than three decades of CRM history, the Philippines has chalked up a wealth of lessons and experiences in managing coastal resource use and issues. Since 1998, following the enactment of the Philippine Fisheries Code, many CRM programs have been led or initiated by local government units (LGUs), primarily the cities and municipalities, reflecting the devolution of primary responsibility for the management of municipal waters to local authorities. All provide unique perspectives on CRM and opportunities for exchange and sharing of learning and information. In 2003, the Coastal Resource Management Project (CRMP) sought to bring out little known but significant success stories being written every day by LGUs that had embarked on CRM. A 9-year technical assistance project of the United States Agency for International Development and Department of Environment and Natural Resources that ended in 2004, CRMP invited all coastal LGUs in the country to participate in a directory listing of “CRM learning destinations.” Of the more than 1,000 entry forms sent out to coastal LGUs, about 80 were returned and eventually made it to the 1st edition of the Directory of CRM Learning Destinations in the Philippines. The Directory has proven to be a handy source of information on study tour destinations in the Philippines, particularly for those looking to learn about various LGU initiatives in CRM. But it now needs to be brought up to date, not only with current information from the LGUs already listed but also with new information on CRM initiatives by other LGUs in the last five years. This 2nd edition of the Directory is an initiative of the League of Municipalities of the Philippines with support from three organizations: 1. The Fisheries Improved for Sustainable Harvest (FISH) Project of the United States Agency for International Development and the Department of Agriculture-Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources, 2. World Wide Fund for Nature – Philippines, and 3. Conservation International This Directory of CRM Learning Destinations in the Philippines is meant not only as a documentation of the CRM initiatives of the LGUs involved. It is also intended to be a testament of recognition of local leadership in CRM, and a message of encouragement to all coastal stakeholders to continue and strengthen the good work they have begun. LMP and its partners salute and thank the individuals, LGUs and organizations listed in this Directory for sharing valuable CRM lessons, information and experiences that others can learn from. v vi D irectory of CRMLearningDestinations in the Philippines ntroduction and Guide to this I Directory This Directory of CRM Destinations in the Philippines lists 96 municipalities, cities and local government alliances that responded to our call for entries. The listing is based solely on information submitted by the local government units or organizations assisting them and has not been validated in the field. It is designed primarily as a quick guide to provide leads to where specific lessons in coastal resource and fisheries management may be found. If you wish to learn more about a specific program or activity, or the local government unit, community or organization that is implementing it, please contact the concerned group directly through the addresses or telephone numbers listed. The individual entries are listed alphabetically according to regions, from Regions 1 through 13 to ARMM, as shown in the Table of Contents. If you are looking for a specific region, province, municipality or city, or program or best practice, it is best to check the Indexes first. The following indexes are provided: 1.

Dominant species caught were Decapterus spp. having 70.09% of the total catch, followed by Selar spp. at 12.66% and Rastrelliger spp. 10.70%. Among the Decapterus spp. caught, D. macrosoma attained the highest total catch composition by species having 68.81% followed by D. kurroides and D.russelli with 0.31% and 1.14% respectively. The round scad fishery stock was composed mainly of juvenile fish (less than 13 cm) and Age group II (13 cm to 14 cm). Few large round scad at Age group IV and V (20 cm to 28 cm) stayed at the fishery.

Rizalthus, new genus, with just one species, R. anconis, new species, can be distinguished from allied genera by characters of the carapace, epistome, chelipeds, male abdomen and male fi rst gonopod. Visayax, new genus, contains two new species, V. osteodictyon and V. estampadori, and can be distinguished from similar genera using a combination of features of the carapace, epistome, thoracic sternum, male abdomen, pereiopods and male fi rst gonopod. A new species of Hepatoporus Serène, H. pumex, is also described.
