The age structure ofboth species among reefs within the Great Barrier among reefs in the central Great ReefMarine Park was based on counts ofannuli from sectioned otoliths.

Different waters will provide different overview of fisheries related to its biological aspects. The red bigeye (Priacanthus macracanthus) is one of economically important demersal fish species in Indonesia. To support the biological status of this species, a regular field observation were carried out during May 2016 to April 2017 in Palabuhanratu bay, south of West Java. The objective of this study is to estimate the spawning season and potential reproductive stages including to evaluate how the key management related to the species and its gear selectivity.

The South China Sea is a major water body containing a large and diverse fish fauna. However, many areas of the South China Sea, particularly in Malaysia and Vietnam, have been poorly studied in terms of fish taxonomy and diversity. Local fish scientists and students have frequently faced difficulty when try- ing to identify fishes in their home countries.

  • Two Species of Snappers Off Lazarus and Seringat Islands
    SINGAPORE BIODIVERSITY RECORDS 2017: 91-92 ISSN 2345-7597 Date of publication: 28 July 2017. © National University of Singapore Two species of snappers off Lazarus and Seringat Islands Subjects: Bigeye snapper, Lutjanus lutjanus (Teleostei: Lutjanidae); Russell’s snapper, Lutjanus russelli (Teleostei: Lutjanidae). Subjects identified by: Contributor & Kelvin K. P. Lim. Location, date and time: Singapore Strait, off north-western part of Lazarus Island; 20 May 2016; 1256 hrs; and the eastern part of Seringat Island; 7 June 2017; 1443 hrs. Habitat: Marine. Subtidal zone of seawalls of large granite boulders, extending to 3-4 m depth, followed by sandy substrates. Observer: Contributor. Observations: Two separate observations - Fig. 1. Fig. 2. Photographs by Daisuke Taira 1) One example of bigeye snapper (Lutjanus lutjanus) of about 10 cm total length was observed swimming along the seawall at the north-western part of Lazarus Island at a depth of about 2 m on 20 May 2016 at 1256 hrs (Fig. 1 & 2). Fig. 3. Fig. 4. Photographs by Daisuke Taira 2) A Russell’s snapper (Lutjanus russelli) around 15 cm in total length was seen along the eastern part of Seringat Island at around 4 m depth on 7 June 2017 at 1443 hrs (Fig. 3 & 4). 91 Remarks: Both Lutjanus lutjanus and Lutjanus russelli are known from Singapore waters (Fowler, 1938: 146; Lim & Low, 2008: 108 as Lutjanus madras, 109). Lutjanus lutjanus is distinguished from the similar looking and sympatric Lutjanus madras (Indian snapper) chiefly by its larger eyes and the width of the space between the lower eye margin and the mouth.

All species are autochthonous; no introduced species have been found. The fish fauna is exclusively marine, with the Labridae, Pomacentridae, Serranidae, Gobiidae and Acanthuridae being the families with most representatives. The fish fauna at Europa Island is typical for offshore, low islands in the southwestern Indian Ocean. Zoogeo- graphically, the main element of the fish fauna of Europa Island consists of widespread tropical Indo-Pacific species (292 species, 75.1 % of the total occurring species). A total of 13 species (3.3 %) are found worldwide, either cir- cumtropical or circumtropical including warm temperate zones. An additional 76 species (19.5 %) are Indian Ocean endemics, including 36 western Indian Ocean endemics (9.2 %), and 10 southwestern Indian Ocean endemics (2.6 %). No endemic fish species are reported for Europa Island. K e y w o r d s : Checklist, Pisces, southwestern Indian Ocean, Europa Island, new records, zoogeography.
