  • Freshwater Fish Survey of Homadola-Nakiyadeniya Estates, Sri Lanka
    FRESHWATER FISH SURVEY OF HOMADOLA-NAKIYADENIYA ESTATES, SRI LANKA. Prepared by Hiranya Sudasinghe BSc. (Hons) Zoology, M.Phil. reading (University of Peradeniya) INTRODUCTION The diversity of freshwater fishes in Sri Lanka is remarkably high, with a total of 93 indigenous fishes being recorded from inland waters, out of which 53 are considered to be endemic (MOE, 2012; Batuwita et al., 2013). Out of these, 21 are listed as Critically Endangered, 19 as Endangered and five as Vulnerable in the National Red List (MOE, 2012). In addition, several new species of freshwater fishes have been discovered in the recent past which have not yet been evaluated for Red Listing (Batuwita et al., 2017; Sudasinghe 2017; Sudasinghe & Meegaskumbura, 2016; Sudasinghe et al., 2016). Out of the 22 families that represent the Sri Lankan freshwater ichthyofauna, the family Cyprinidae dominates, representing about 50% of the species, followed by the families Gobiidae, Channidae and Bagridae, which represent seven, five and four species, respectively. The remainder of the other families are each represented in Sri Lanka by three species or less. Four major ichthyological zones, viz. Southwestern zone, Mahaweli zone, Dry zone and the Transition zone were identified by Senanayake and Moyle (1982) based on the distribution and the endemism of the fish. The Southwestern zone shows the greatest diversity, followed by the Mahaweli zone, with the least diversity observed in the Dry zone. About 60% of the freshwater fishes occur both in the dry and the wet zones of the island while the rest are more or less restricted to the wet zone. Of the endemic fishes, more than 60% are restricted to the wet zone of the island while about 30% occur in both the dry and the wet zones.

These include S. sexcauda (Fowler 1937), S. balteata (Rendahl 1948), S. mahnerti Kottelat 1990, the recently described S. aurantiaca Plongsesthee et al. 2011 and S. tenebrosa Kangrang et al. 2012, and a newly discovered species described herein. Schistura sexcauda previously was the only Schistura species known in the Mae Khlong, and it was mis-identified as S. desmotes (Fowler 1934). Schistura pantherina, n. sp., is easily distinguished from all other species of Schistura by its distinctive color pattern. It appears to be endemic to the Mae Nam Kwai Noi system. Key words: Pisces, Cypriniformes, Schistura sexcauda, Schistura desmotes Introduction In his treatise on Indonchinese nemacheilids, Kottelat (1990) recorded only one species of Schistura from the Mae Khlong basin in southwestern Thailand and referred to it as Schistura desmotes.

The treatment is the concentration of the use of nilem skin gelatin 0.2%, 0.3%, 0.4%, and CMC 0.4% (control) of the total mixture of ice cream ingredients (full cream milk powder, skim, stabilizer, emulsifier, and water) with 4 repetitions. The parameters observed were the level of preference for the color, aroma, texture, and taste of ice cream. The most preferred ice cream is obtained by using nilem skin gelatin at a concentration of 0.4%.

INTRODUCTION Nilem is a family of Cyprinidea freshwater fish, and can be seen in Figure 1. Cultivation of nilem fish is almost abandoned because its utilization is not optimal [25]. The part of nilem fish which is eggs is generally used to make caviar so that there is fish skin waste.

Fish were collected with 3 randomized samplings per season at 6 stations using 6 sets of gillnets. A total of 45 fish species were found and most were in the Cyprinidae family. The catch by gillnets was dominated by Parambassis siamensis with an average CPUE for gillnets set at night of 807.77 g/100 m2/night. No differences were detected on CPUE between the seasonal surveys. However, the CPUEs were significantly different (P<0.05) between the stations. The Pak Narmkam station had a higher CPUE compared to the Pak Narmpung station (1,609.25±1,461.26 g/100 m2/night vs. 297.38±343.21 g/100 m2/night). The results of the study showed that the Nong Han Wetlands is a lentic lake and the fish abundance was found to be medium. There were a few small fish species that could adapt to living in the ecosystem. Keywords: fish species, fish composition, abundance, CPUE, Nong Han wetland 1.

Revision accepted: 12 November 2018. Abstract. Ng CKC, Ooi PAC, Wong WL, Khoo G. 2018. Ichthyofauna checklist (Chordata: Actinopterygii) for indicating water quality in Kampar River catchment, Malaysia. Biodiversitas 19: 2252-2274. The limnological habitats are receptors of pollution, thus local fish species richness is a plausible biological indicator to reflect the quality of a particular water body. However, database on species occurrence that corresponds with the water physico-chemistry constituents is often not available. The problem is compounded by the lack of species identification description to assist those working on river and freshwater resource conservation projects. This paper attempts to fill the gaps in the context of Kampar River drainage. Based on sampling exercises conducted from October 2015 to March 2017, an annotated list with visual data for 56 species belonging to 44 genera and 23 families is presented. The water physico-chemistry data is also summarized with the corresponding visual data of limnological zones studied. The species diversity results are further compared with other local drainages and the correlation between area size and their relationship is expressed by y = 17.627e0.0601x.
