Penelitian struktur ukuran dan biologi populasi rajungan di perairan Kepulauan Aru telah dilakukan pada Januari-April, Juni dan Agustus-November 2016. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengidentifikasi struktur ukuran dan biologi populasi yang meliputi pertumbuhan, laju kematian, dan tingkat eksploitasi rajungan. Pemahaman struktur ukuran dan biologi populasi dapat dijadikan dasar masukan untuk pengelolaan perikanan. Rata-rata ukuran lebar karapas rajungan yang tertangkap sebesar 136 mm untuk jantan dan 141 mm untuk betina. Rajungan yang tertangkap pada Januari dan Juni memiliki rata-rata ukuran yang lebih besar. Rata-rata rajungan yang tertangkap sudah melawati ukuran matang gonad (Lc = 133,4 mm > Lm = 119,9 mm). Puncak musim pemijahan terjadi pada Februari-Maret dan Agustus-September. Lebar karapas asimtosis (CW) sebesar 185 mm dengan laju pertumbuhan (K) 1,15 tahun-1 serta laju kematian total (Z) 4,94 tahun-1, laju kematian alamiah (M) 1,20 tahun-1 serta laju kematian akibat penangkapan (F) 3,74 tahun-1. Laju eksploitasi sudah berada pada kondisi lebih tangkap (E=0,76). Hasil kajian menyarankan bahwa pengelolaan perikanan rajungan perlu dilakukan secara hati-hati agar sumberdaya ini dapat lestari. Salah satu upaya yang dapat di tempuh adalah dengan menerapkan sistem penutupan musim penangkapan rajungan pada saat terjadinya puncak musim pemijahan yaitu pada Februari-Maret dan Agustus-September. Dengan demikian diharapkan proses regenerasi dan rekrutmen rajungan selalu dapat mendukung ketersedian stok sumberdaya rajungan di perairan Kepulauan Aru ini. Study on the size structure and population biology of blue swimming crab in the waters of Kepualuan Aru was conducted in January to April, June and August to November 2016. The aim of this study was to identify the size structure and population biology i.e. growth, mortality, and exploitation rate of blue swimming crab. Understanding on the size structure and population biology can be used as basic information for managing blue swimming crab fisheries. Average size of carapace width of blue swimming crab was 136 mm for male and 141 mm for female. Catch on January and June was bigger size than others months. Length at first capture was higher than length at maturity (Lc = 133,4 mm > Lm = 119,9 mm). Spawning peak season occurs in February-March and August-September. Asymptotic carapace width (CW) of blue swimming crab was 185 mm with the growth rate (K) was 1,20 year-1, total mortality (Z) was 4,94 year-1, natural mortality (M) was 1,20 year-1, and fishing mortality (F) was 3,74 year-1. Exploitation rate was exceed the sustainability limit (E = 0,76). Thus, it is needed to manage the blue swimming crab fishery with precautionary approach. Based on this study, we suggest to apply the fishing closure system at the peak of spawning season. Thus, the regeneration process and recruitment will support the availability of blue swimming crabs resource in Kepualuan Aru waters.
Papuan seerfish (Scomberomorus multiradiatus; local: tenggiri papua) is an endemic species to the Papuan waters and distributed from the waters of Papua New Guinea to Merauke in Indonesia. The biological information of this species is little known. This study aimed to determine the biological aspects of Papuan seerfish to fill the research gap of this species. The data collection were conducted from February to November 2016. Biological parameters observation of the fish sample included of fork length (FL), sex, and maturity stages. All the data were analyzed using standard methods. The maximum length and weight of Papuan seerfish from Merauke waters were 49 cm and 908 g and this size became the largest published size ever. The sex ratio was in an equal condition and the growth pattern was isometric. Spawning occurs all year arounds and reach its peak on August. The relative condition factor of Papuan seerfish tend to be low in the reproductive periods. Papuan seerfish from Merauke waters were caught before reaching their size at maturity (Lc < Lm). For the sustainability of this resources and precautionary approach of fisheries management, it is suggested to apply the minimum catch size in 33 cm.
Ikan cakalang merupakan salah satu jenis ikan dominan di Laut Sulawesi. Usaha penangkapan ikan cakalang di perairan ini menggunakan berbagai alat tangkap diantaranya pukat cincin, huhate, jaring insang hanyut, dan pancing (pancing ulur, rawai, dan tonda). Tempat pendaratan ikan hasil tangkapan diantaranya terdapat di Manado, Bitung, Kwandang, Toli-toli, Tahuna (Sulawesi) dan Tarakan (Kalimantan).
