Abstract

A study on the stock status of blue swimming crab (Portunus pelagicus Linnaeus, 1758) was conducted in Tanah Laut, South Kalimantan waters, based on data collected in March to November 2017. The results showed that the growth pattern of blue swimming crab in Tanah Laut waters was negatively allometric and the sex ratio of males to females was 1.0 : 1.7. The chi-square test indicated that the total males and total females of the blue swimming crab was significantly different. It means that there was an imbalance in numbers between males and females. The estimated length at first capture (Lc) was 127.26 mm (carapace width; CW), smaller than the length at first maturity (Lm) at 133.24 mmCW. The growth parameter of blue swimming crab was 1.1year with a maximum carapace width (L) of 204.3 mmCW. The estimated instantaneous total mortality (Z) and natural mortality (M) were 3.04/year and 1.24/year, respectively. While fishing mortality (F) and exploitation rate (E) were 1.80/year and 0.59/year, respectively, the estimated spawning potential ratio (SPR) was 11.1 %. Therefore, the stock status was categorized as overfishing. In order to ensure the sustainability of the blue swimming crab, a precautionary approach,, such as reducing fishing effort by 18 % of the current situation, is strongly recommended to apply.

Abstract

Southwest Moluccas or Maluku Barat Daya (MBD) District is one of the small islands located in the southeastern part of outer ring of Indonesian Archipelagic States. There are 17 sub districts covering 48 islands lie scattered in the region in which 31 islands among them were not inhabited. The island has a total population of about 72.300, while 4.069 (5.6 %) are fisherman. The annual fish production in 2017 was reported at 8,971 tons consists of: small pelagic fish (48%), demersal (37%), and large pelagic (15%). The coastal ecosystems include of coral reefs (595 Ha), mangrove (7.8 Ha), and sea grass (57 Ha). Seaweed harvesting and cultivation are ones that would be developed as an alternate livelihood for the community. The goal of this research was to describe a general situation of community livelihood that supported by the role of marine fisheries. The general description of fishing boat and fishing gear, annual production, distribution of fisherman and household around the islands were discussed. The fisheries category were small scale within about one day fishing. The environmental parameters such as monthly air temperature, rainfall and wind speed were plotted as supporting information. The population distribution and fisherman were also used as a base line parameter to elaborate the potential of marine living resource in the interested area. Those resources were described with existing small scale fisheries issues based on limited serial data that gathered through field observation. The secondary data such as Mollucas Southwest District (MBD) annual data from the Local Statistical Board (BPS) annual report were also used in this paper.

Abstract

Juvenile yellowfin tuna (Thunnus albacares) and bigeye tuna (T. obesus) are very similar in morphological characteristics, hence it is difficult to distinguish between these two species, especially when they are landed in frozen or defect conditions. The presence of juvenile bigeye tuna in yellowfin catch was first noticed in the 1980s from pole and line fisheries in Maldives. We analyzed the monthly composition structure of juvenile tuna caught by purse seine fleet operating in the South Indian Ocean. Tamperan fishing port was chosen for benchmarking to other small-scale fisheries. The result is expected to be used as an index for increasing the accuracy of juvenile tuna proportion for national catch statistics. A total of 4760 juvenile tunas were examined during monitoring activities. The length ranged 19-65 cm FL with median 40 cm FL for juvenile yellowfin tuna and 44 cm for juvenile bigeye. The whole weight of juvenile tuna ranged from 5 to 7 kg. The length-weight conversion for both species are W = 0.0184*FL3.0086 (R2 = 0.95, n = 4144) for juvenile yellowfin tuna and W = 0.018*FL3.0047 (R2 = 0.93, n = 346) for juvenile bigeye tuna. It can be inferred from the study that in terms of catch proportion of juvenile tuna, it consists of ratio 10:1, whereas for every 10 kg of juvenile tuna contains approximately one kg of bigeye tuna. Besides, the length-weight equation for both species is interchangeable, which means either equation can be performed to convert length to weight for both juvenile yellowfin and bigeye tuna.

Abstract

The aim of this study was to analyze fish species caught by gill nets and fish diversity of the New Calabar River. Three sampling stations were set based on the coverage situation of the river and ichthyofauna associated with gill nets were sampled twice monthly from February to July 2018. A total of 3,251 fish specimens, representing 11 orders, 15 families, and 28 species, were captured. The order Perciformes was identified as the most abundant representing five families while the remaining had one family each. The fish family Cichlidae was the most represented with seven species, and other notable families were Alestidae, Clupeidae, and Mugilidae, representing three species each. Prominent among the fish caught monthly included Liza falcipinnis, Mugil cephalus, Sarotherodon melanotheron, Sarotherodon galilaeus, Coptodon guineensis, and Sardinella maderensis. The mean catch per unit effort (CpUE) ranged from 3.15±0.2 to 4.85±0.2 kg unit-1 day11. Results of diversity indices revealed that Shannon-Wiener index values varied between 2.64 and 2.82, Simpson diversity ranged from 0.07 to 0.10, and Pielou’s evenness index values ranged from 0.85 to 0.95. The values obtained in this study showed that the status of fish diversity in New Calabar River was stable.

Abstract

Longtail tuna (Thunnus tonggol) is one of common economically important pelagic fish species in Indonesia. The objective of this study is examining the biology of reproduction, consisting of length of weight relationship, sex ratio, maturity stage, gonado somatic index (GSI), length at first capture, and length at first maturity and spawning pattern. A total of 633 longtail tuna, ranging 29-58 cmFL and consisting of 293 males and 340 females, were collected from the Java Sea between April 2018 and March 2019. The results showed that the longtail tuna growth pattern was isometric. The sex ratio was not significantly different between male and female. The length of first capture longtail tuna of drift gillnet (43.2 cmFL) was bigger than the length at first maturity (42,3 cmFL). This indicates that the most of longtail tuna caught by drift gillnet have already spawned. The peak’s spawning season occurred in May and November, with fecundity ranging from 783,597 - 1,579,160 eggs. Longtail tuna has multiple spawning pattern

Abstract

A field research on reef fish-community structures in Natuna waters was carried out in November 2015. This research aimed to obtain the trophic composition of reef fishes and its correlation to diversity, density, and biomass. Underwater visual census on several transect areas was used to collect data. Results show that the identified reef fishes were about 100 species of target-reef fish belonging to 18 families and 23 species of indicator-reef fish of the Chaetodontidae family. The mean species number of target reef fish and indicator reef fish were 42 and 7 species, respectively. The  mean density of the target reef fish and indicator reef fish were 0.4 and 0.05 individual per m2, respectively. The mean of the reef fish relative stock was 0.6 ton/ha. The composition of the herbivores mostly found in the resilient coral reefs r was 46.45 % and the omnivores and planktivores as marketable targeted fishes were 18.64 % and 14.28 %, respectively. The most predominant or major families were from herbivorous, carnivorous, planktivorous, and corallivorous fishes, including Scaridae (i.e. Scarus spp), Lutjanidae (i.e. Lutjanus spp.), Caesionidae (i,e. Caesio cuning and Pterocaesio caerulaurea), and Chaetodontidae (i.e. Chaetodon baronessa and Chaetodon octofasciatus). The results suggested that the community structures were quite prospectively implemented for fisheries; however, it may not be promising for coral resilience. Furthermore, the coral health status was at moderate level in regard to the high numbers of corallivorous butterflyfishes.

Abstract

The use of anchored fish aggregating devices (a-FADs) in the Indonesia-Indian Ocean has increased rapidly. Since 2004, the Government of Indonesia has issued various FAD related fisheries regulations; however, its implementation was difficult, largely due to the lack of such information. As an endeavor to improve the management of tuna fisheries associated with FADs in this area, an Indonesia–Australia research collaboration project conducted a port sampling program from November 2013 to December 2015 in three key fishing ports in the western Indonesia, i.e., Pelabuhanratu (West Jawa), Muara Padang (West Sumatera), and Bungus (West Sumatera). Data were collected through daily enumeration and interviews with skippers, which consisted of catch, trip duration, biological data, and number of FADs visited. These data were analyzed to estimate catch rate, success rate, and length frequency distribution. The success rate of hand line/trolling line (HL/TR) at Muara Padang showed much lower than that at Pelabuhanratu. This may be due to more a-FADs or higher density in the Padang region, competing with purse seine (PS) boats operating in the same area, than those in the Pelabuhanratu region. The species composition caught by HL/TR and PS associated a-FADs in Indonesian FMA 572 and 573 include skipjack (SKJ, Katsuwonus pelamis), yellowfin (YFT, Thunnus albacares) and bigeye tuna (BET, T. obesus). A large proportion of the SKJ, YFT and BET caught at both Indonesian FMA 572 and 573 were juvenile fish, below the reported length at maturity (Lm) for those species.

Abstract

The wild betta fish is a potential ornamental fish export commodity normally caught by traders or hobbyists in the wild. However, the population of wild betta in nature has declined and become a threat for their sustainability. This research was conducted to analyze the genetic diversity, phylogenetic relationships, and molecular identification through DNA COI gene sequence of Indonesian wild betta fish. A total of 92 wild betta fish specimens were collected in this study. Amplification of COI genes was carried out using Fish F1, Fish R1, Fish F2, and Fish R2 primers. The genetic diversity and phylogenetic relationships were analyzed using MEGA version 5 software program. Species identification of the specimen was conducted using BLAST program with 98-100% similarity value of the DNA sequences to indicate the same species. Phylogenetic tree construction showed seven monophyletic clades and showed that Betta smaragdina was the ancestral species of genus Betta in Indonesian waters. Genetic distance among species ranged from 0.02 to 0.30, whereas intra-species genetic distance ranged from 0 to 6.54.

Abstract

The important information that was needed for determining the sustainable management of mud spiny lobster (Panulirus polyphagus Herbst, 1793) in Sebatik Waters were the exploitation status and the reference point. The aims of this research was to study the reference point and the exploitation status of P. polyphagus. This research was conducted from March 2016 to December 2018 and the total samples of 1.261 female lobsters had been collected monthly from the traditional gillnet fishers in Sebatik. Reference point was determined from the Beverton and Holt yield per recruit and the exploitation status was estimated from the length based spawning potential ratio (LB-SPR). The results showed that a lot of P. polyphagus catched by the gillnets were still immature. The annual spawning potential ratios from 2016 to 2018 were still lower than the reference point of 24% that showed the overexploited status of P. polyphagus in Sebatik Waters. The minimum legal size of 87 mmCL or the minimum weights of 500 grams and not increasing the quota vessels following by the monitoring study of its stock for the next several years were some recommendations for the sustainable P. polyphagus management in Sebatik Waters.

Abstract

Several population parameters of skipjack tuna (Katsuwonus pelamis) taken by pole and line gear from Maumere Waters from March 2017 to February 2018 were analyzed. A total of 2,194 skipjack tuna was sampled randomly. Fishing activities were carried out around FADs (Fish Aggregating Devices) and free fish shoal. Observers and enumerators collected data from several landing sites and by direct on-board observations. This study aims to provide length-frequency distribution by season, estimate growth mortality parameters, and estimate stock exploitation rate using FISAT software. The results showed that the total catch was dominated by skipjack tuna; up to 80% with the CPUE of 30.8 kg/person/trip, and the skipjack tuna’s length distribution ranged from 26 to 69 cm FL. Length at first capture (Lc) was 34.71 cm FL, and immature fish dominated the total catch with 53%, indicating growth overfishing. The calculated von Bertalanffy growth (VBG) parameters were L= 70.35 cm, K = 0.55 yr-1, and t0 = -0.39 yr. Natural mortality (M) was estimated to be 0.92 and fishing mortality (F) was 0.91. The mean longevity of skipjack tuna is estimated to be 3.2 years, with an exploitation rate (E) of 0.50. Sustainable exploitation of skipjack tuna determined from this analysis could be developed with an Emax of 0.73. There is a focus on reducing the catch of immature fish through various methods that include changing the fishing target area from FADs to fishing on natural fish schools and using gear modifications such as larger-sized (lower number) hooks.
