Freshwater fish of the Melanesian region
Author(s):Boseto, D.
Year: 2005
Notes: Melanesian Geo, 12-13, 1

Abstract: Freshwater resources are under threat around the globe from anthropogenic influences. The island nations of Melanesia are particularly vulnerable due to their limited freshwater resources, burgeoning populations and increasing mining and logging activities. Data suggest 20-35% of freshwater fishes are vulnerable, endangered or extinct, mostly because of habitat alteration and the introduction of exotic species. This fauna is an important source of protein for rural Pacific islanders, especially those living far inland, but there has been little study of the ecology and possible utilization of endemic species. Low numbers of recorded freshwater species in some countries can be attributed to a lack of research, leading to an absence of statutory regulations and enforcement measures to protect local fauna. Biodiversity surveys and cooperative resource management plans are urgently needed to protect aquatic environments.
