Post Graduate College, Mansehra, Pakistan 2Department of Botany, Govt. Post Graduate College, Mansehra, Pakistan 3Department of Zoology, Govt. Degree College, Oghi, Pakistan E-mail: [email protected] Received 12 August 2020; Accepted 20 September 2020; Published 1 December 2020 Abstract Ichthyofaunal composition is the most important and essential biotic component of an aquatic ecosystem. There is worldwide distribution of fresh water fishes. Pakistan is blessed with a diversity of fishes owing to streams, rivers, dams and ocean. In freshwater bodies of the country about 193 fish species were recorded. There are about 30 species of fish which are commercially exploited for good source of proteins and vitamins. The fish marketing has great socio economic value in the country. Unfortunately, fish fauna is declining at alarming rate due to water pollution, over fishing, pesticide use and other anthropogenic activities. Therefore, about 20 percent of fish population is threatened as endangered or extinct. All Mashers are ‘endangered’, notably Tor putitora, which is also included in the Red List Category of International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) as Endangered. Mashers (Tor species) are distributed in Southeast Asian and Himalayan regions including trans-Himalayan countries like Pakistan and India. The heavy flood of July, 2010 resulted in the minimizing of Tor putitora species Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and the fish is now found extinct from river Swat.

  • Taxonomic Status of Puntius Species Found in India: a Historical Review
    International Journal of Zoology Studies www.zoologyjournals.com ISSN: 2455-7269 Received: 16-02-2021, Accepted: 30-03-2021, Published: 22-04-2021 Volume 6, Issue 2, 2021, Page No. 44-46 Taxonomic status of Puntius species found in India: A historical review Rabindra Kumar Saroniya Department of Zoology, R. S. Government Degree College, Lalitpur, Uttar Pradesh, India Abstract The taxonomic identification is a regular process to resolve ambiguities based on morphological features. The first worker on Indian fishes was Bloch whose splendid work on “Auslandische Fische” published in 1785. However, fish studies with a more scientific, more accurate and fulfilling the needs of modern taxonomy on the Indian freshwater fish fauna started only from 19th century. Beginning with Hamilton-Buchanan’s (1822) account of the fishes of the Ganges, followed by Bennett (1830), J. McClelland (1839), Col. W. Sykes (1839), Cantor (1839), McClelland (1839), Wyllie (1840), Cuvier and Valenciennes (1849), Pieter Bleeker (1853), Blyth (1858),T. C. Jerdon (1849), the vast array of fish found in this area came to light. All these pioneer researchers laid a solid foundation for Indian systematic Ichthyology. Many new species has been discovered by many research scholar like Vishwanath and Laisram (2004), Jameela Beevi and Ramchandran (2005), Mercy and Jacob (2007), Devi et al. (2010), Krishna Kumar et al. (2011),Knight et al. (2012) and Plamoottil, M. (2015) from various parts of India. Plamoottil and Johnson (2020) described 8 new species in taxonomic notes on Puntius species of South India. In India, more than 60 species of genus Puntius has been identified and described by various workers.

Fish species diversity data were collected from fishers using Fish species diversity participatory rural appraisal tools and the change in the fish species diversity was determined using Shannon- Fishers Wiener, Margalef's Richness and Pielou's Evenness indices. Principal component analysis (PCA) was conducted Principal component analysis with a dataset of 150 fishers survey to characterize the major factors responsible for the reduction of fish species Climate change fi Anthropogenic activity diversity. Out of 63 sh species, 83% of them were under the available category in 2008 which decreased to 51% in 2018. Fish species diversity indices for all 12 taxonomic orders in 2008 declined remarkably in 2018. The first PCA (climatic change) responsible for the reduced fish species diversity explained 24.05% of the variance and consisted of erratic rainfall (positive correlation coefficient 0.680), heavy rainfall (À0.544), temperature fluctu- ation (0.561), and beel siltation (0.503). The second PCA was anthropogenic activity, including the use of harmful fishing gear (0.702), application of urea to harvest fish (0.673), drying beels annually (0.531), and overfishing (0.513).

Pre-spawning fitness (Kspawn50) and size at 50% maturity (LM50) benchmarked through Kaplan-Meier survival estimates were in the range 1.61–1.67 units (Fulton condition factor) and 8.6–9.0 cm respectively. Mapping of climate preferendum through LOESS smoothing hinted both low-mild rainfall (50–150 mm) and high rainfall conditions (400–700 mm) conducive for attaining pre-spawning fitness while no dependence on tem- perature was observed.

The aim of the study is to find out the taxonomic diversity and biometric characters differences in the genus Puntius from Lower Anicut (Kollidam river), Tamil Nadu. The Kollidam river inhabits naturally ornamental and edible fishes like Puntius species. 50 indiduals of Puntius species were collected from this site. The specimens are preserved and stored in laboratory. Thereafter recorded the biometric (morphometric and meristic) characters of Puntius sophore, Puntius filamentosus, Puntius sarana, Puntius ticto and Puntius conchonius. The morphometric measurements and meristic counts of all individuals of the Puntius species were taken into account for identification. In the present study, 45 - morphometric (Standard length =Nbc/SL*100 and Head length =HLc/HL*100) and 31-meristic characters were recorded for five species of the genus Puntius. The various statistical values were made by using Microsoft Office Excel. Key words: Diversity of genus Puntius, Biometric study, Taxonomic characters. INTRODUCTION The aquatic resource of the seven South Indian states – Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka, Kerala, Tamil Nadu, Pudhucherry, Goa and parts of Maharashtra cover about 20 % of rivers and canals, 38.6 % of reservoirs, 50 % of tanks and ponds and 63 % of swamps and derelict water source of India 4.

It is also used as an aquarium fish. It is classified as small indigenous species of fish (SIS). Body is moderately compressed, silvery colour, barbels absent, lateral line complete. It feeds on diatoms, algae, insects, crustaceans, rotifers, fish remains, and higher plants. It shows breeding in monsoon season. Morphometric characters have been commonly used in fisheries biology as powerful tools for measuring discreteness and relationships among various taxonomic categories (Quilang et al., 2007). In the present study 25 fish samples of puntius sophore of variable sizes ranging from 7.5- 10.5mm in total length (TL) were sampled from Meghadrigedda Reservoir, Visakhapatnam. These specimens were allowed to measure various morphometric and meristic characters. The minimum and maximum range, mean, standard deviation, percentage of various parameters in total length were estimated.

MOSADDEQUR RAHMAN, MD. YEAMIN HOSSAIN*, MD. ABU SAYED JEWEL, MOHAMMAD MUSTAFIZUR RAHMAN, SALEHA JASMINE, ELGORBAN M. ABDALLAH & JUN OHTOMI ABSTRACT The present study describes the length-frequency distribution, length-weight (LWR) and length-length relationships (LLR), and condition- and form-factors of Puntius sophore wild population from the Chalan beel, north-central Bangladesh. Sampling was done using traditional fishing gears including jhaki jal (cast net), tar jal (square lift net), and dughair (conical trap) during March 2010 to February 2011. For each individual, the total length (TL), fork length (FL) and standard length (SL) were measured by digital slide calipers. Individual body weight (BW) was also taken by a digital balance. A total of 185 specimens ranging from 3.62-9.02 cm TL and 0.70-13.20 g BW were analyzed in this study. The length-frequency distribution showed that the 6-7 cm TL size group was numerically dominant and constituted 43% of the total population. The coefficient b of theLWR s indicated positive allometric growth (b>3.00) for P. sophore in the Chalan beel. The results also indicated that the LWRs were highly correlated (r2 > 0.945). The calculated Fulton’s condition factor (K) values ranged from 0.69-2.35, with a mean value 1.64±0.30.
