Wf.> hilve recorded the employment of mollusks, crustaceans, echinoderms, fishes, reptiles, and cetace<lns, and noted a high predominance of fishes over other aquatic animals. Asthma, bronchitis, stroke, and wounds arc the most usual illnesses treated by animal-based medicines. These results corroborate Marques' zoothcrapeutic universality hypothesis. According to him, all human cultures that prcscnt a developed medical system do use animals as medicines. Further studies are requested in order to estimate the existence of bioactive compounds of ph<lrmacological value in these bioresources.

Fish catches and remotely sensed data are analyzed for the 5 years datasets from 2010- 2014 and emphasized the differences of climate conditions during El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO) events. Here, we demonstrate the prominent annual variation of two species small pelagic fish catches (Euthynus affinis and Scomberomorus commerson) and one demersal species (Netuma thallasina) as representative of dominant catch in the region. Small pelagic catches had significant increment during El Niño compared to during La Niña events. Changes in oceanographic conditions during ENSO events resulted in perceivable variations in catches, with an average catches of 839.6 t (E. affinis) and 273,7 t (S. commerson) during El Niño. During La Niña event catch rates were reduced with an average catches of 602.6 t (E. affinis) and 210.3 t (S. commerson). During the La Niña event was less favorable for small pelagic catches.

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.

An estimation of the total production was obtained through the analysis of 781,856 landings, among which 87% were categorized as artisanal and 13% as industrial. The abundance index showed some stability in the e20180450 period. However, due to the high number of production units, the fi shing effort need to be maintained, given that there is a risk that increased production might affect the abundance of G. barbus. Thus, as alternatives to maintaining marine catfi sh exploitation 92 in southeastern Brazil under control, the following management actions can be (Suppl. 2) suggested: i) prohibition of fi shing activity by the industrial sector; ii) strengthening of 92(Suppl. 2) inspection of the fl eet that is not allowed to participate in the marine catfi sh fi sheries, with emphasis on purse seiners; and iii) maintenance of a closed season for G. barbus, performing an adaptive management of fi shing prohibition according to the reproductive biology of the species and with the support of artisanal fi shers.
