Barid, Bounpheng Phylavanh, Bounthong Vongsenesouk, and Khamsouk Xaiyamanivong P.O. Box 860, Pakse, LAO E-mail address: [email protected] The smallscale croaker Boesemania microlepis is a large species in the perciform family Sciaenidae reaching over a metre in length and at least 18 kg in weight. Although drums and croakers from this family are mainly marine, this freshwater species is found in the Mekong, Chao Phraya, Nan, Meklong, Tachin, and Bang Pakong River basins. It occurs in the Mekong River basin in Thailand, Laos, Cambodia and Vietnam, and parts of peninsular Malaysia and Western Indonesia. In the Mekong River, the species is known at least as far north as Louang Phrabang in northern Laos. This paper reviews the status of mainstream Mekong River populations of the smallscale croaker in southern Laos. We have identified seven known spawning grounds in Khong District, Champasak Province, southern Laos based on the dry-season occurrence of croaking individuals in spawning condition in these areas. We discuss habitat usage and the acoustic sounds made by smallscale croakers. Fish Conservation Zones have already been established to benefit the species, and this may be an excellent strategy for protecting populations. Boesemania microlepis should be considered for special IUCN conservation listing, based on widespread reports of severely declining stocks of this popular and expensive food fish in southern Laos and northeast Cambodia.

In the present work, we use data of an endangered fish species to demonstrate the importance of selecting the right data error structure when fitting growth models in multimodel inference.

Sasaki iagnostic characters: Moderately elongate, moderately compressed, small to large (to 200 cm Dstandard length) perciform fishes. Head and body (occasionally also fins) completely scaly, except tip of snout. Sensory pores often conspicuous on tip of snout (upper rostral pores), on lower edge of snout (marginal rostral pores), and on chin (mental pores), usually 3 or 5 upper rostral pores, 5 marginal rostral pores, and 3 pairs of mental pores; these pores usually distinct in bottom feeders with inferior to subterminal mouth, whereas indistinct in midwater feeders with terminal to oblique mouth. A barbel sometimes present on chin. Position and size of mouth variable from strongly inferior to oblique, larger in species with oblique mouth, smaller in species with inferior mouth. Teeth differentiated into large and small in both jaws or in upper jaw only; enlarged teeth always form outer series in upper jaw, inner series in lower jaw; well-developed canines (more than twice as large as other teeth) may be present at front of one or both jaws; vomer and palatine without teeth. Dorsal fin continuous, with deep notch between anterior (spinous) and posterior (soft) portions; anterior portion with VIII to X slender spines (usually X), and posterior portion with I spine and 21 to 44 soft rays; base of posterior portion elongate, much longer than anal-fin base; anal fin with II spines and 6 to 12 (usually 7) soft rays; caudal fin emarginate to pointed, never deeply forked, usually pointed in juveniles, rhomboidal in adults; pelvic fins with I spine and 5 soft rays, the first soft ray occasionally with a short filament.

Conservation status of wild totoaba and its legal use in Mexico 1.1. History and fishing ban The totoaba (Totoaba macdonaldi) is distributed in the most important and productive fishing zone in Mexico (Gulf of California). In 1920, the fishing of this species influenced the establishment of fishing villages in the Upper Gulf, but it was until 1929 that it was commercially exploited, increasing fishing to 2,000 tons per year between 1940-1950, for meat consumption. In 1955, the government of Mexico established a seasonal ban to protect the breeding areas in the critical stages (mouth of the Colorado River); in 1974, this area was decreed a Reserve for the species subject to fishing.

Specifically, the Center seeks certification that Mexico’s failure to stem the growing trade and export of endangered totoaba (Totoaba macdonaldi) “diminishes the effectiveness” of the 1973 Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (“CITES”),1 as it simultaneously drives the critically endangered vaquita to extinction. Id. § 1978(a)(2). The Center requests that the Secretaries recommend trade sanctions against Mexico for these violations, as contemplated by the Pelly Amendment. Id. § 1978(a)(4).2 As described in detail below, the totoaba is a large, critically endangered fish found only in Mexico’s Gulf of California.

  • EAL – Operation Fake Gold
    OPERATION FAKE GOLD Executive Summary The vaquita, the world’s smallest and most endangered porpoise, is nearly extinct due to China’s demand for the swim bladders, or ‘maws,’ from a giant Mexican fish called the totoaba. By-catch from the Illegal fishing of totoabas with the use of gillnets is killing vaquitas. In fact, the use of gillnets for illegal totoaba fishing is endangering the entire marine ecosystem in the Upper Gulf of California. The International Committee for the Recovery of the Vaquita (CIRVA) estimated that, as of November 2016, no more 1. “CIRVA 10 Final than 30 vaquitas remained.
