Abstract

Indian coastal waters, though hugely productive and, despite bearing the major share of total marine fish landing over the past many years of the country, provide only limited scope for further production augmentation. Taking cues from the increasing demand for fishes from domestic as well as international markets that include reduction fish industry, opportunities for spatial expansion targeting non-conventional resources of the deep seas have never been abrogated by the trawler fleet across the maritime states. Thus, they have often encountered lantern fish (myctophids), unicorn leather jacket (Aluterus monoceros), smooth blaasop (Lagocephalus inermis) red toothed triggerfish (Odonus niger) etc., which added to enhance economic benefits from deep sea fishing
