Tesis ini merupakan salah satu syarat untuk memperoleh gelar Magister Sains pada Program Studi Magister Ilmu Kelautan, Departemen Biologi, Fakultas Matematika dan Ilmu Pengetahuan Alam (F- MIPA), Universitas Indonesia. Ikan terbang Cheilopogon katoptron merupakan hasil tangkapan utama yang banyak tertangkap dengan pengoperasian jaring insang ( gillnet) di perairan Pemuteran Bali Barat. Pemanfaatan ikan terbang yang tidak terkendali dapat mengancam kelestarian ikan terbang. Salah satu informasi ilmiah yang dibutuhkan dalam merumuskan kebijakan pengelolaan dan konservasi ikan terbang antara lain adalah biologi reproduksi dan parameter lingkungan perairan. Maka itu, muncul pemikiran yang mendorong penulis untuk meneliti aspek biologi reproduksi, parameter lingkungan perairan dan jenis makanan utama ikan terbang di perairan Bali Barat.

Aspek ini diuji pada ikan terbang Cheilopogon katoptron yang merupakan hasil tangkapan utama nelayan di perairan Pemuteran Bali Barat, dengan pengoperasian drift gillnet selama bulan April-Juni 2011. Aspek biologi merupakan permasalahan utama yang dibahas dalam penelitian, dengan tujuan untuk memperoleh informasi nisbah kelamin, pola pertumbuhan, kondisi, masa pemijahan, kondisi lingkungan, dan makanan. Pengumpulan sampel meliputi data panjang-berat, kematangan gonad, isi perut, data parameter fisik air dan populasi plankton. Data dianalisis dengan fungsi regresi, uji-t dan koefisien determinasi. Data sebaran panjang untuk ikan terbang jantan pada 168-231 mm dan betina 158-284 mm, dengan perbandingan sex ratio jantan-betina sebesar 1,8:1,0. Kondisi ikan terbang jenis ini dinyatakan sebagai ikan yang kurus dan belum memasuki masa pemijahan. Pertambahan ukuran panjang ikan memberikan pengaruh yang nyata dan keeratan yang tinggi terhadap pertambahan berat ikan terbang Cheilopogon katoptron jantan (2,6 %) dan betina (1,8 %). Pertambahan panjang ikan juga memberikan pengaruh yang nyata terhadap volume isi perut ikan terbang Cheilopogon katoptron, yakni pada kisaran 1,7 - 2,8 %. Pada bulan Juni 2011, perairan Pemuteran Bali Barat diduga terjadi upwelling, yang didukung oleh data parameter fisik air laut dan adanya lonjakan pertumbuhan fitoplankton.

Email:[email protected] 2Fisheries Research and Investigation Officer, Department of Animal Husbandry, Dairying & Fisheries, Ministry of Agriculture, Government of India, KrishiBhawan, New Delhi-110114. E- mail: [email protected] Abstract In India, billfish fishery is contributed by Indo-pacific sailfish, blue marlin, black marlin, striped marlin and swordfish. The landings of the billfishes along the Indian coast are showing an increasing trend since the 1990s and the estimated landing during 2012 was 11613 t. Drift gillnets-cum-longline, handlines and longlines operated from mechanized and motorized craft contributed maximum to the catches. Along the east coast, peak catches occur during July- September and along the west coast during October-March. Length-weight structure and biology of the dominant species are presented and discussed. Keywords: Billfish, sailfish, drift gillnet, longline, by-catch Introduction In India, targeted fishery for billfishes does not exist, but this group constitute one of the most important components of bycatch in the longline, troll and oceanic drift gillnet fishery of Indian waters. Three species of marlins – stripped (Tetrapturus audax), blue (Makaira mazara) and black (M. Indica); Indo-Pacific sailfish (Istiophorus platypterus) and swordfish (Xiphias gladius) are the billfish species reported in the Indian fishery. The landings of the billfishes along the Indian coast are showing an increasing trend since the 1990s and the estimated landing during 2012 was 11613 t. Drift gillnets-cum-longline, handlines and longlines operated from mechanized and motorized craft contributed maximum to the catches.

Stomachs of 290 specimens in the forklength range of 101-261 cm were examined, of which 38 (13.10%) were empty. Prey composition was assessed in terms of occurrence by number, frequency of occurrence, weight and Index of Relative Importance. Quantile regression techniques were used to determine the mean and upper and lower bounds of the relation between prey size and sailfish length. Diet was dominated by teleost fishes, followed by cephalopods while crustaceans were represented in limited instances. Purpleback flying squid, Sthenoteuthis oualaniensis, was the most preferred prey species. Other important prey species identified were Euthynnus affinis, Cubiceps pauciradiatus, Gempylus serpens and Onychoteuthis banksii. Diet did not varied by sex, but the ontogenetic and seasonal variations in diet were significant.

    Flyingfish By Robert Gillett And James Ianelli FFA Report 92/56 PACIFIC ISLANDS FORUM FISHERIES AGENCY P.O.BOX 629 HONIARA SOLOMON ISLANDS TELEPHONE (677) 21124 FAX (677) 23995 WEB http://www.ffa.int CHAPTER 7 FLYINGFISH Robert Gillett and James Ianelli I. INTRODUCTION Flyingfish represent an important resource in many parts of the world. Several Pacific Islands currently have developed flyingfish fisheries and many have a history of traditional fisheries for flyingfish. Some Pacific islands do not have flyingfish fisheries, yet the abundance of the resource appears to be at least as great as other areas. As fishing pressure on limited reef resources increases, the development of alternative fisheries is needed, particularly for small- scale fishermen. Preliminary investigations suggest that flyingfish may also fall into this category. This chapter presents information obtained from a review of available literature, discussions with fisheries workers, correspondence with flyingfish authorities, and recent flyingfish fishing trials. This provides the basis for an assessment of the potential for fisheries development for this resource in the South Pacific. II. BIOLOGY In the following section, aspects of the biology of flyingfish are presented with as much reference as possible to the Pacific Island situation. In many cases, however, for lack of details specific to the Pacific Islands, information on studies from other parts of the world is provided. IDENTIFICATION In order to address fundamental questions on population dynamics and biology of flyingfish, it is important to be able to clearly identify the species involved. Flyingfishes (family Exocoetidae) are closely related to the garfishes (family Hemiramphidae), longtoms or needlefish (family Belonidae), and sauries (family Scomberosocidae).

BRAINERD† Biology Department and Organismic and Evolutionary Biology Program, University of Massachusetts, Amherst MA 01003, USA Received 7 July 2005; accepted for publication 1 March 2006 Within the ray-finned fishes, eel-like (extremely elongate) body forms have evolved multiple times from deeper-bod- ied forms. Previous studies have shown that elongation of the vertebral column may be associated with an increase in the number of vertebrae, an increase in the length of the vertebral centra, or a combination of both. Because the vertebral column of fishes has at least two anatomically distinct regions (i.e. abdominal and caudal), an increase in the number and relative length of the vertebrae could be region-specific or occur globally across the length of the ver- tebral column. In the present study, we recorded vertebral counts and measurements of vertebral aspect ratio (ver- tebral length/width) from museum specimens for 54 species representing seven groups of actinopterygian fishes. We also collected, from published literature, vertebral counts for 813 species from 14 orders of actinopterygian and elas- mobranch fishes. We found that the number of vertebrae can increase independently in the abdominal and caudal regions of the vertebral column, but changes in aspect ratio occur similarly in both regions.

  • An Exploratory Ecosystem Model of the Bay of Bengal Large Marine Ecosystem
    An exploratory ecosystem model of the Bay of Bengal Large Marine Ecosystem Sylvie Guénette EcOceans, St. Andrews NB, Canada prepared for the Bay of Bengal Large Marine Ecosystem Project ( www.boblme.org/ ) December 2013 (revised 27 August 2014) S. Guénette, 2013 Bay of Bengal model 2 S. Guénette, 2013 Bay of Bengal model 3 Abstract The trend towards ecosystem-based management requires the development of tools to gain insights in ecosystem functioning and the impact of fishing on ecosystem structure. This study aims at developing one of such tools, an ecosystem model of the Bay of Bengal built with the Ecopath and Ecosim software. The Bay was divided in three sections considered relatively independent from each other while migrating species were assumed to occupy the entire study area. The available data and the methods to develop the model are described. The static model (Ecopath) was built to represent year 1978 and synthesise available population dynamics and fisheries data. A preliminary Ecosim model was set up to allow exploring interactions between functional groups and the impact of fishing. Time series of abundance, catches and effort were assembled for four functional groups for this purpose. The Ecopath model is one image of the ecosystem that results from the data available and the choices that were made for each parameter at the input, stage and when balancing the model. Several crucial gaps in biomass estimates and level of exploitation were noted. Changing the assumptions would lead to different biomasses and P/B values and possibly, the strength of the foodweb links. Given the lack of time series to fit the model to a larger number of functional groups, and the use of commercial CPUEs as abundance indices for large pelagics, the uncertainty of temporal simulations is large.
