  • FAO Aquaculture Newsletter 32
    In the morning of 26th December 2004, a devastating Tsunami of incredible magnitude struck 12 countries in South East and South Asia, East Africa and the Indian Ocean. This natural disaster caused varying degrees of damage to lives, livelihoods, infrastructure and economies in India, Indonesia (Sumatra), Malaysia, Maldives, Myanmar, Sri Lanka, Thailand, Somalia and the Seychelles. The countries worse hit were Indonesia and Sri Lanka; India and Thailand also suffered significant damage. The incident, which occurred for only a few minutes in each country, took more than 290 000 lives and devastated many fisheries and coastal aquaculture in all the affected countries. Reports indicate that in Sri Lanka over 70 percent of the coastal fishing capability has been lost, and in Banda Aceh in Indonesia, besides serious damage to fisheries, almost 50 000 ha of aquaculture facilities have been destroyed. The Thai and Indian marine cage culture and shrimp aquaculture (including hatcheries) sectors have also suffered significant damages. The loss in human life is staggering and can never be adequately compensated, but rebuilding the fisheries and aquaculture sector is possible and necessary. In partnership with other agencies, FAO is helping affected countries by providing emergency assistance for relief, rehabilitation, planning and rebuilding of the fisheries sectors under an agency-wide, multilateral assistance programme supported by many countries and development agencies. In doing so, FAO will ensure that the relief and rehabilitation efforts will improve the capacity of the local people to be better prepared for similar natural disasters. The assistance programme is implemented in accordance with the national rehabilitation and rebuilding plans, and in collaboration and consultation with the stakeholders.

It is usually known as Bheda, Meni, Roina, Nandui etc. Fish samples were obtained from the local fish markets (Boro bazar, Jhikorgacha market, Doratana market) of south-western district of Bangladesh, Jashore. Only the fish flesh was taken for analysis rather than the whole fish with bones. All the nutritional analysis was done by standard AOAC methods. Results showed that moisture percentage was about 78%; ash percentage was about 1%; crude protein percentage was (19%); crude lipid percentage was about 2%. Calcium content of the fish sample was 0.30mg/100g and Iron content was 0.90mg/100g of fresh sample.

BHAKAT* Department of Zoology, Rampurhat College, Rampurhat 731224, West Bengal, India *Corresponding author Orcid: 0000-0002-4926-2496, Email: [email protected] Abstract Nandus banshlaii, sp. nov. is described from the Banshlai River of West Bengal. This species is distinguished from all its congeners in having a golden brown body in live and a combination of characters like longest head and snout length (44.28% SL and 35.58% HL respectively) and from its two Indian congeners in containing largest eye diameter (22.22% HL), longest pre-dorsal length (47.16% SL), shortest pectoral fin length (14.60% SL) and smallest dorsal fin base length (45.53% SL).Like all three congeners of Ganga-Brahmaputra-Meghna river basin of Gangetic delta it possess a dark spot on caudal peduncle. To differentiate the present species from other two Indian congeners of Nandus, N. nandus and N. andrewi, PCA and heatmap is performed and a key of all three species is also provided. Keywords: Banshlai River, Black spot, Gangetic delta, Head length, Heatmap, PCA, Introduction Genus Nandus Valenciennes in Cuvier and Valenciennes, 1831, commonly known as leaf fish is characterized by oblong compressed body, large protrusible mouth with projecting lower jaw, triangular operculum with a single prominent spine, dorsal fin with 12 – 14 spines and 11 – 13 soft rays, anal fin with three spines and seven to nine soft rays, slightly rounded caudal fin, ctenoid scale, interrupted lateral line and cryptic colouration.

  • Intraspecific Phenotypic Variation in Nearly Threatened Mottled Nandus
    Sains Malaysiana 49(11)(2020): 2609-2623 http://dx.doi.org/10.17576/jsm-2020-4911-01 Intraspecific Phenotypic Variation in Nearly Threatened Mottled Nandus,Nandus nandus (Hamilton, 1822) (Variasi Fenotip Intrakhusus Patung Belang Nandus yang Hampir Terancam, Nandus nandus (Hamilton, 1822)) MD. SAROWER-E-MAHFUJ, MD. ABDUS SAMAD, FEE FAYSAL AHMED, MD. ABDUL ALIM, YOSNI BAKAR & SIMON KUMAR DAS* ABSTRACT Understanding intraspecific phenotypic plasticity is a prerequisite of stock identification, evolutionary studies, sustainable utilization, and fishery conservation. In this study, intraspecific phenotypic plasticity was assessed in terms of the external features (i.e. meristic, morphometric, and truss-based morphometrics) of the wild Nandus populations from four freshwater sources in Southwestern Bangladesh. Fish samples were collected from Arial Kha River, Madaripur (AKRM, n=26); Nabaganga River, Jhenaidah (NRJ, n=22); Bohnni Baor, Gopalganj (BBG, n=26); and Dhakuria Beel, Jashore (DBJ, n=22). Meristic, morphometric, and truss network data were subjected to one-way ANOVA followed by post hoc (Tukey-HSD) test. The meristic counts of all the samples demonstrated significant differences only in one of the six characters. By contrast, significant differences were observed in 8 morphometric characters and 31 truss network data from 16 morphometric characters and 35 truss network data, respectively. Principal component (PCA) and canonical variate analyses (CVA) were also performed on morphometric and truss-based network data. Meristic and morphometric results from PCA and CVA showed that populations were completely intermingled, forming a compact cluster within intrapopulation levels, while truss morphometric characters formed a separate cluster. Three dendrograms independently based on phenotypic relationships among the individuals of the four populations also confirmed the absence of phenotypic differentiation among the population due to clustering of different groups.

Abstract Nandus prolixus sp. nov. is described from the Sepilok River drainage in Sabah, northeastern Borneo. This species is distinguished from its only Sundaic southeastern Asian congener, N. nebulosus, in having a longer, more produced snout (25.7–30.6% HL vs. 18.5–26.1), more lateral- line scales (33–37 vs. 24–34), more scales below the lateral line (12 vs. 10–11), fewer spines in the dorsal fin (XIV vs. XV–XVI), and fewer pectoral-fin rays (15–16 vs. 17–19). It differs from N. nandus (from India) in having fewer lateral-line scales (33–37 vs. 42–55), fewer scales above the lateral line (4–5 vs. 6–7), fewer scales below the lateral line (12 vs. 14–18), more dorsal spines (XIV vs. XII–XIII), and the absence (vs. presence) of a distinct dark spot at the base of the caudal peduncle. It differs from N. oxyrhynchus (from mainland southeastern Asia) in having a more slender body (body depth 37.6–40.5% SL vs. 41.3–44.1) and a less steeply sloping predorsal profile.
