“…In recent years, many apogonid species like Apogonichthyoides siali 13 and Holapogon maximus 14,15 , Cheilodipterus macrodon 3 have been reported from the southern EEZ (Exclusive Economic Zone) of India. This can be attributed to the shift in fishing pattern form coastal to deep waters and also due to closer observation and monitoring of bycatches from the deep sea fishery resources.…”

“…This can be attributed to the shift in fishing pattern form coastal to deep waters and also due to closer observation and monitoring of bycatches from the deep sea fishery resources. In addition, there is an increase in trend of researchers focusing towards the deep-sea fish diversity in the southern coast of India, in particular to Gulf of Mannar 3,15,16,17 . Moreover, in the Gulf of Mannar, the slope is precipitous beyond 500 m, and 180 to 450 m depth range the bottom topography undulates 18 .…”

Three specimens of apogonids species of total length 72.69, 106.28 and 110.67 mm were caught off Tuticorin at the depths of 90-100 m as a bycatch on 1 st January 2013 from the commercial trawler operated from Tuticorin Fishing Harbour, Southeast coast of India. In this paper, on the occurrence of Jaydia queketti was figured and the comprehensive diagnostic features of the recorded specimens were elucidated. The species of this genus Jaydia is distributed continentally and often caught as a bycatch from shrimp or fish trawl. These species are widely distributed in New Guinea, larger islands in the Coral Sea, Australia, Arabian Sea of India and also from Africa to Japan. Nevertheless, the present observation shows the occurrence of J. queketti from the bycatch of trawl fishery operated along Gulf of Mannar, Southeast coast of India.

“…Moreover, the continental slope is the widest along the south and south eastern edge of the Wadge Bank, whereas the slope is gentle, precipitous beyond 500 and 180-450 m depth with undulating bottom topography on the eastern side of the Wadge Bank and in the Gulf of Mannar [17]. Hence, there is a scope of diverse resources in particular deep sea fishery resources along Gulf of Mannar Southeast coast [18,19] and the Wadge Bank, Southwest coast of India.…”

Five specimens of dactylopterids measuring 220.5-320.0 mm standard length caught commercial trawler fishing in 80-120 m deep waters of Wadge Bank off Kanyakumari coast (8.02 N, 76.80 E) were collected from the landing centre at Jeppiaar fishing harbour, Muttom, Southwest coast of India. The specimens were identified as Dactyloptena peterseni (Nystrom, 1887) on the basis of morphometric measurements and the key identification character like absence of second free spine between the occipital and the first dorsal spine. The occurrence of the species suggests that the extended distribution of D. peterseni to Southwest coast of India. The detailed morphometric and meristic characters are described and discussed in this paper. Molecular identification was done by using partial sequence of mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase sub-unit I gene for confirmation of the species.

New Distributional Records for Cardinalfishes (Perciformes/ Apogonidae) from North East Arabian Sea, Western Indian Ocean

et al. 2019

Fishes of family Apogonidae popularly known as cardinalfishes are of high ecological importance owing to its trophic role. Though the presence of apogonids from the coastal waters of the northeastern Arabian sea are reflected in diets of predatory fishes of the region and bycatch of trawls, limited reports are available on species composition. Three species namely Apogonichthyoides pseudotaeniatus (Gon, 1986), Jaydia queketti (Gilchrist, 1903) and Jaydia lineata (Temmink & Schlegal, 1842) have been reported for the first time from the region, adding to the apogonids diversity of the region. Ostorhinchus fasciatus (White, 1790) is also reported for the first time from the coastal waters of Gujarat. Morphometric assessment of the four species revealed several discriminating attributes capable of separating the species from each other.
