Chapter 1 introduces the subject - with a review of the important works carried out by earlier workers in this field. Chapter 2 describes the age and growth of the fish determined from skeletal hard parts like otoliths, scales and vertebrae. Theoretical growth and length-weight relationship are also included in this Chapter. Chapter 3 describes the food and feeding habits of - E. diacanthus, the relative importance and percentage composition of each item is described in great detail.
