Abstract

With intensification of fishing in the inshore regions of the Indian Seas for increasing marine fish production through several innovations, a number of fisheries resources have come to be exploited at optimum levels. The demand for fish and fish products both for internal consumption and for export, has been the main reason for this situation. Among finfishes, the Whale Shark Rhiniodon typus of Gujarat, the catfishes of the, genus Tachysurus off Karnataka and the Whitefish Lactarius lactarius along the south west coast of India have been reduced in abundance.
