This paper reports seven species of opisthobranchs from the intertidal zone of the south Saurashtra coastline off the Arabian Sea, Kathiawar Peninsula, west coast of India. Field surveys were undertaken along the intertidal zones of south Saurashtra coast during 2012–2014. In this study, seven species belonging to six families were recorded, of whichHaminoea ovalis, Flabellina bicolor, Phidiana militaris, Baeolidia palythoaeandSakuraeolis gujaraticaare new records from this coastline.

The benthic ctenophore Vallicula multiformis Rankin, 1956 is recorded for the first time in the Arabian Sea, from the Gulf of Kutch, west coast of India in March 2013. This occurrence represents a remarkable extension of its geographic distribution that until now included only known the Pacific and Atlantic oceans.

The present paper documents the molecular diagnosis and genotyping of white spot syndrome virus (WSSV) isolates collected from different shrimp farms of Gujarat, north-west coast of India. Preliminary diagnosis was done using singletube PCR and genotyping of isolates by analysis of variable number tandem repeat sequence (VNTRS) in minisatellites viz., ORF 94, ORF 125, ORF 75 and ORF 75 flank. Out of the 79 samples analysed, 32 (33.80%) were positive with low (54.17%), medium (8.33%) and high (37.50%) severity of infection. Genotyping, using ORF 94 revealed that repeat units (RUs) 4 and 11 were the most frequent ones (32%) while ORF 125 showed 5 different repeat types of which RU 5 was the most common (45.83%). Two genotypes were observed for ORF 75, one showed multiple repeats of two 45 bp, followed by a 57 bp, whereas the other showed two repeats that included 5 and 4 repeats of 45 bp. Sequence analysis of the 54 bp variable sequence of ORF 94 RU type 4 revealed single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) at 47th base. Based on the results from ORF94, dominance of RU types 11or 4 were recorded for the first time in India and one sample showed 2 bands of different sizes indicating the prevalence of two different genotypes infecting the same pond at a given time. Further, no correlation could be observed between the virus genotype and the severity of the mortality in the outbreaks. The results suggest the widespread occurrence of WSSV in the region and circulation of distinct virus genotypes.

Longtail Tuna

Longtail tuna (Thunnus tonggol, Bleeker, 1851), the largest growing species among neritic tunas have a unique distribution pattern globally. Northern Arabian Sea together with the Oman Sea and Persian Gulf in the north-western Indian Ocean is considered to be the major area where the species is abundant and form sizeable fisheries globally. India has an artisanal tuna fishery and contributes nearly 10% of the longtail tuna landing in the region, with Gujarat alone contributing nearly 80%. The paper updates on the longtail tuna fisheries in the region with focus on the north-west coast of India together with its spatial characteristics. Clues on the areas of abundance of the species along Gujarat coast over the seasons and temporal movements of different ontogenetic stages in the shelf areas are revealed. The study sets prelude to a cost effective and participatory collection of spatially referred data on the artisanal and small scale fisheries in the region.
