A total of 16 farms were interrogated to identify and quantify the number of birds considered to be a threat to shrimp farming. Tiger shrimps (Penaeusmonodon) and Vannamei (Penaeusvannamei) were the two widely cultivated species in this region. A total of 19 species of birds were observed, that includes, cormorants, coots, egrets, kingfishers and kites. Among the different size class of birds 58%, 32%, and 10% were small, medium and large birds, respectively. In foraging mode of birds 78% were active foragers caused highest damage in the farm. Scavenging birds and mud probers constituted 11% each of the total bird species. Farmers were more concerned about the disease transmission by mechanical or fecal contamination rather than predation. Based on the present findings management measures were suggested.<#LINE#>Annon 2013@National Aquaculture Sector Overview 2005-2013, India, National Aquaculture Sector Overview FactSheets, In: Ayyappan, S (ed.)

The aims of the present study were to determine the water quality, assess nature or humans impact on the physico-chemical and biological characteristics of the tank water with a view to effective utilization, better management, conservation and sustainable exploitation of the tank resources. E-coliforms were used as indicators of bacterial pollution while phosphate, nitrate, BOD and oxygen were used as indicators of possible nutrient enrichment in the tank. This water body lies in the heart of the Bhadravathi town (Karnataka) and continuously receiving sewage from the surrounding residential areas and producing bad odor. The presence of Escherichia coli (E.coli) bacteria in tank may indicate that the water has been contaminated from the domestic sewage. Nitrate, phosphate and BOD values were high depicting cultural eutrophication occurring from surface runoff of nitro-phosphate fertilizers from nearby lands into the tank and the present findings revealed that the water quality of the tank is productive and eutrophic. In addition, fish diversity, species cultured, fish marketing, advantage and disadvantages of sewage fed fisheries in the present water body are discussed in this article.<#LINE#>Patil D.B. and Tijare R.V.@Studies on water quality ofGodchiroli lake@Poll.

A total of 14 helminth parasites (7 trematodes, 6 nematodes and 1 acanthocephala) were detected from different digestive organs with the highest rate of infestation from intestine (74.4%, 59.5% and 45.6% viz. in A.testudineus, C.fasciata and T.lalius). The study reveals that helminthes show seasonality in prevalence, mean intensity and abundance of infestation. Irrespective of host the prevalence was maximum (63.9%, 65.9% and 66.5% in three host fishes) during pre-monsoon and minimum (43.7%, 52.4% and 44.4%) during monsoon while the intensity of infection was highest during monsoon. Density of infection or abundance was minimum during retreating monsoon while the value is approximately equal for entire three host species during rest of the seasons.<#LINE#>Yooyen T., Wongsawad C., Kumchoo K.and ChaiyapoM.A.@New record of Clinostomum philippinensis(Valasquez, 1959) in Trichogaster microlepis (Gunther,1861) from Bung Borapet@Nakhon Sawan,Thailand,Southeast Asian J Trop Med Public Health, 37, 99-103(2006)@Yes$Markov G.S.@Physiology of fish parasites.

In processed condition, moisture(%), protein (%), fat (%), ash (%) and pH were 48.84%, 28.49%, 5.63%, 18.97% and 6.3 respectively in case of DS Shoal and 46.21%, 23.58%, 4.03%, 27.27% and 6.5 respectively in case of DS Taki fish-product. During different days of storage, moisture and pH was significantly increased (p<0.05) whereas total protein, lipid and ash contents were decreased significantly (p<0.05). Moisture (%) and pH was increased 53.69% and 8.1 in case of DS Shoal (165 days) and 53.02% and 7.9 in case of DS Taki (150 days) respectively. Protein (%), fat (%) and ash (%) content were decreased 26.52%, 3.00% and 17.28% in case of DS Shoal (165 days) and 20.41%, 3.24% and 23.45% in case of DS Taki (150 days) fish-product.
