Abstract: The establishment of live-bait skipjack tuna, Katsowonus pelamis, fishery and several years of field observations have provided information on baitfishes and their habitats that were previously unavailable from the Palau Islands. The baitfsih habitats in Palau areas around limestone islands, mangrove shorelines, coral atolls, and barrier coral reefs. The principal fishes used as skipjack tuna bait in Palau are an engraulid, Stolephorus heterolobus ; a dussmieriid, Spratelloides delicatulus ; an atherinid, Pranesus pinguis ; a Clupeid, Herklotsichtys punctatus. Species of lesser importance as bait include Stolephorus buccaneeri, Dussumieria acuta, and several unidentified apogonids.

Abstract: In recent years the pole and line fishing for especially skipjack tuna ( Katsuwonus pelamis ) has expanded in the South Pacific region and has become an important fishery to Fiji and other island countries. A necessary prerequiste to this fishery is the adequate supply of live bait, which may be difficult or even impossible to get in some areas. Therefore increasing effort has been put into surveys and investigations of the natural baitfish stocks, where such are found ( cf. Shomura (edit. ), 1977).

Abstract: The country overview consist of a collection of the current Fisheries Sector Development Plans for each country as prepared by the team and approved by the development projects and a brief set of country specific fisheries statistics. The Fisheries Sector Development Plans have been extracted from the current National Development Plan. They have therefore been taken somewhat out of context in that they do not include the national plans chapters covering the macroeconomic framework and the government's plans for the public sector.

Osmotic and ionic composition of a tropical freshwater mussel Batissa Violacea Lamarck (Lamallibranchia : sphaeriidae)
Author(s): Fergusson, J.E., Raj, U.
Year: 1980
Held at: IMR; USP
Identifiers: Batissa violacea; Freshwater mussels; Osmosis; Ions; Ionic regulation
Abstract: Osmotic and ionic analyses of the tropical freshwater mussel Batissa violacea Lamarck are reported. The osmotic pressure of the haemocoelic fluid is low and generally in the range found for other similar species. The ionic compositions of the haemolymph and the tissues are different from those of other freshwater bivalves. These differences, and the distribution of sodium, chloride, potassium, calcium, magnesium, and sulphate, in the intracellular phases of B. violacea are discussed in relation to the evolutionary history of mussel colonization of freshwater environments.
