  • Ports of New Guinea Revisited (A Trip Down Memory Lane)
    Ports of New Guinea Revisited (A Trip Down Memory Lane) Not named the “Paradise Islands” without due reason. Papua New Guinea and its outlaying islands must rank amongst the top in the global scale of beauty for both Fauna and Flora, not to mention the pristine Aquatic attributes these islands possess. If crystal blue water, silver sandy beaches, swaying palms, coral reefs, lush tropical rainforest, reptiles, and birds together with a country steeped in history and culture stokes your imagination, then this should become your choice of destination. It is true that Papua New Guinea is not blessed with an extensive infrastructure of highways and good roads and the only realistic way to explore these islands is by light aircraft, or better still, by ship. I spent a memorable 4-5 years of my sea-going career in the Pacific Islands, including New Guinea, and it is based on my observations and experiences that this narration is derived. During the 1970s and early 80s I was fortunate to have the opportunity to sail around these waters in my capacity as a professional seafarer. It covered a relatively short period, but it was a time of great adventure and feeling of exploration, bearing in mind that during those years New Guinea was completely unspoiled by the influences of Western society and retained much more mystique and feeling of the “unknown” compared to today. What follows is a personal recap and description, of what I can remember of those years I spent in the region. Map showing main Ports of New Guinea DARU Island - this is a small elliptical island close to the mainland in the western region of Papua New Guinea.

  • The Freshwater Ichthyofauna of Bougainville Island, Papua New Guinea!
    Pacific Science (1999), vol. 53, no. 4: 346-356 © 1999 by University of Hawai'i Press. All rights reserved The Freshwater Ichthyofauna of Bougainville Island, Papua New Guinea! J. H. POWELL AND R. E. POWELL2 ABSTRACT: Tailings disposal from the Bougainville Copper Limited open-cut porphyry copper mine on Bougainville Island, Papua New Guinea (1972-1989) impacted the ichthyofauna of the Jaba River, one of the largest rivers on the island. To assess the 'extent of this impact, comparative freshwater ichthyologi­ cal surveys were conducted in five rivers on the island during the period 1975­ 1988. Fifty-eight fish species were recorded, including one introduction, Oreo­ chromis mossambicus. The icthyofauna is dominated by euryhaline marine spe­ cies consistent with that of the Australian region, but more depauperate. There are more than 100 species present on mainland New Guinea that are absent from Bougainville streams. Oreochromis mossambicus was the most abundant species in the sampled streams, accounting for 45% of the catch. The most abundant native fishes were the mainly small Gobiidae and Eleotridae. There were few native fish of potential value as food and these were restricted to an eleotrid gudgeon (Ophieleotris aporos), tarpon (Megalops cyprinoides), eel (An­ guilla marmorata), and snappers (Lutjanus argentimaculatus and Lutjanus fus­ cescens). Fish production in the rivers is limited by the morphology of the streams and the depauperate ichthyofauna. Fish yield from the Jaba River in its premining state is estimated to have ranged from 7 to 12 t/yr. The popula­ tion living in the Jaba ,catchment in 1988 (approximately 4,600 persons) shared this resource, resulting in an extremely low per-capita fish consumption rate of less than 3 kg/yr.
