Skin of lower lip separated from lower jaw by a shallow groove. One dorsal fin; serrated dorsal fin spine. Eight branched pelvic finrays. Anal fin base long, 90% of head length. Geographical Distribution FAO Fisheries and Aquaculture Department Launch the Aquatic Species Distribution map viewer Southeast Asia: Lower Xe Bangfai; Mekong basin in Laos, Thailand and Cambodia; Chao Phraya basin; Malay Peninsula; Sumatra and Java. Habitat and Biology Found at midwater to bottom depthsin rivers, streams, floodplains, and occasionally in reservoirs. Seems to prefer standing water habitats instead of flowing waters. Not commonly taken in the dai nets of the Tonlé Sap, but much more likely to be caught in the large traps of the Great Lake.Feeds on both plant and animal matter, and inhabits the flooded forest during periods of high water. Size To 40.5 cm. Interest to Fisheries Aquaculture, aquarium, fisheries.Taken with seines, gillnets, set nets, and traps. Usually marketed fresh. Occasionally seen in the aquarium trade, but its non descript coloration and lethargic habits have limited its popularity. Used for "lap pa" (in the preparation of which the numerous small bones are ground fine) or grilled or used to make "som pa". Herbivore believe to play useful role in cropping excessive vegetation in dam reservoirs. No catch reported for this species to FAO for 1999.

Received September 14, 2018; Revised November 2, 2018; Accepted November 8, 2018 Abstract The Naleh fish Barbonymus sp. is among the popular commercial fresh water fishes found in Indonesia; however, the population has drastically declined over the past decade. Necessarily, a conservation program needs to be established to gather information on the population dynamics to overcome this problem. The objective of this study is to analyze the population dynamics of the Naleh fish in Nagan River. The survey was conducted from January to December, 2016. In totality, three sampling locations were selected based on information from local fishermen. The Naleh fish was sampled using gillnets (mesh size 0.5 and 1.0 inches) and casting nets (mesh size 1.5 and 2.0 inches). A total of 761 fish samples were collected for the study. The von Bertalanffy (von Bertalanffy growth function) growth parameters were utilized to analyse the population dynamics of Barbonymus sp., using FISAT II (FAO-ICLARM Stock Assessment Tools-II). The results show the following population dynamics: Asymptotic length (L∞) was 160.07mm, coefficient of growth (K) = 0.73 -1 -1 -1 year , growth performance index (Ø) = 4.27 year , time at which length equals zero (t0) = -0.022 year , growth and age (Lt) -1 -1 = 2.55 year , and optimum length of catch (Lopt ) = 89.9mm.

  • Genetic Resources for Aquaculture: Status and Trends
    109 Genetic resources for aquaculture: status and trends Roger S.V. Pullin 7A Legaspi Park View, 134 Legaspi Street, Consultant, Philippines 1. SUMMARY Aquaculture, the farming of aquatic plants and animals, has grown consistently since 1970, when it provided only 3.9 percent of world fish supply. In 2004, global production of farmed fish (mainly crustaceans, molluscs and finfish) was over 45 million tonnes, comprising about 32 percent of total world fish supply, while the total production of farmed seaweeds for food and extraction of chemicals, was about 13.9 million t. Aquaculture also provides increasing proportions of the world’s supply of ornamental aquatic organisms. Over 90 percent of aquaculture takes place in developing countries, where it has high importance for poor people in terms of nutrition and livelihoods and where further responsible development of aquaculture, integrated with other natural resource use, has high potential for future growth. Based upon statistics submitted to FAO by its member States, about 84 percent of farmed fish production comes from Asia, with 67 percent coming from the Peoples’ Republic of China. However, aquaculture is increasing in importance in all developing regions and is expected to provide about 50 percent of world food fish supply within the next 20 years. The future of aquaculture will depend in large measure upon the effective management of the genetic resources for farmed aquatic plants (PGR) and farmed fish (FiGR), as well as those for the organisms that provide their food and ecosystem services. Fish farms are agroecosystems and aquatic genetic resources for aquaculture on farms are part of agrobiodiversity.

    163 BIODIVERSITY STATUS OF FISHES INHABITING RIVERS OF KERALA (S. INDIA) WITH SPECIAL REFERENCE TO ENDEMISM, THREATS AND CONSERVATION MEASURES Kurup B.M. Radhakrishnan K.V. Manojkumar T.G. School of Industrial Fisheries, Cochin University of Science & Technology, Cochin 682 016, India E-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT The identification of 175 freshwater fish- es from 41 west flowing and 3 east flowing river systems of Kerala were confirmed. These can be grouped under 106 ornamental and 67 food fish- es. The biodiversity status of these fishes was assessed according to IUCN criteria. The results showed that populations of the majority of fish species showed drastic reduction over the past five decades. Thirty-three fish species were found to be endemic to the rivers of Kerala. The distributions of the species were found to vary within and between the river systems and some of the species exhibited a high degree of habitat specificity. The diversity and abundance of the species generally showed an inverse relationship with altitude. The serious threats faced by the freshwater fishes of Kerala are mostly in the form of human interventions and habitat alter- ations and conservation plans for the protection and preservation of the unique and rare fish bio- diversity of Kerala are also highlighted. 164 Biodiversity status of fishes inhabiting rivers of Kerala (S.India) INTRODUCTION river. Habitat diversity was given foremost importance during selection of locations within the river system. Kerala is a land of rivers which harbour a rich The sites for habitat inventory were selected based on and diversified fish fauna characterized by many rare channel pattern, channel confinement, gradient and and endemic fish species.

Live planktonic feed (5000 cells/L), plankton and rice bran having 14.14% protein, and plankton and Saudi-Bangla nursery feed having 30.20% protein were tested as T1, T2 and T3, respectively. Three days old larvae of B. gonionotus (average length 5.0±0.15 mm and weight 7.0±0.05 mg) were stocked at a stocking density of 4.1 larvae/L of water in each aquarium. The highest length at harvest (28.06±0.38 mm and weight 135.00±3.05 mg) and also highest SGR (18.79±0.80) were found in T3 followed by T2 and T1. The survival rate in all the treatments was high (92-90%) and treatment to treatment variation was not significant (P<0.05). The result implies that the application of supplemental feeds over control in nursery rearing of B.

    IUCN Otter Spec. Group Bull. 38(2) 2021 N O T E F R O M T H E E D I T O R NOTE FROM THE EDITOR Dear Friends, Colleagues and Otter Enthusiasts! I can only hope that you all are safe and healthy. I understood that some are already vaccinated. For the rest I hope we all manage to stay safe and healthy until it is our turn. This year we are now much faster than in previous years to get manuscripts online. We are hard working with Lesley to remove all the backlog to the point when we will be able to upload each manuscript on the date the proofprint has been accepted by the authors. You may be well aware that the IUCN OSG Bulletin, via me, became a member of the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE) some years ago. As part of this, I sometimes use anti-plagiarism software to check manuscripts before sending them out for review. Another aspect is that authors submitting manuscripts should carefully consider the list of authors as there are strict rules on how to add an additional author after the original submission, which creates a lot of work for me and them. I want to use the opportunity to ask all authors to carefully double check their reference, and the list of references. It is so much work for Lesley to sort this out and then, especially, find the missing references. Many thanks to Lesley for all endless hours and hours spent not only for getting manuscripts online but also doing the extra work to double-check the manuscripts for typos and the one always missing reference.
