Abstract

Mass mortality of marine animals is occasionally reported from several parts of the world. Various causes have been attributed to mass mortality in the sea. Of these, the main causes are the sudden changes in the temperature and saUnity, noxiousness of water bloom and the lack of oxygen and release of poisonous gases. Brongersma- Sanders (1957), in a comprehensive treatment of the subject, has dealt with different causes for the mass mortality of aniinals in the sea.
