The growth parameters and the mortality rates of the Scomber japonicus peruanus (Chub mackerel) were studied based on monthly data of frequency of fork length classes obtained from commercial landings off the Peruvian coast from 1996 to 1998. The asymptotic body length and growth rate values obtained by the ELEFAN I (Electronic Length Frequency Analysis) ranged from 40.20 cm to 42.20 cm and from 0.38 to 0.39, respectively. The oscillation amplitude was 0.60; the Winter point values varied from 0.50 to 0.60 and the performance index from 2.79 to 2.84. The total mortality rate of the Chub mackerel obtained by the linearized catch curve oscillated between 1.68 and 3.35. The rate of fishing mortality varied from 1.16 to 2.78 and the exploitation rate from 0.68 to 0.84. The annual rate of natural mortality estimated by the Pauly's method ranged from 0.52 to 0.53. The results obtained allow us to conclude that the longevity of the Chub mackerel was slightly over seven years.

The Malayan leaf fish or locally named as kepor (Pristolepis grooti) is one of important biotic components in Ranau Lake ecosystems. This study aimed to estimate population dynamic and exploitation rate of kepor in Ranau Lake, South Sumatera. The population parameters are estimated based on length frequency data which were collected in March to October 2013. Growth parameters and fishing mortality rates were calculated using FiSAT software package. The results showed that kepor’s growth was negative allometric, which tended to gain length faster than weight. Kepor population was dominated (42%) by individual length of 10.0 to 11.0 cm. Predicted length infinity (L) was 17.28 cm with high value of growth rates (K) of 1.4 year-1. The natural mortality rate (M) is 2.57 year-1, the fishing mortality rate (F) is 5.36 year-1 and total mortality rate (Z) is 7.93 year-1. The exploitation rate of Malayan leaf fish in Ranau Lake (E = 0.68 year-1) has passed the optimum score.

This paper deals with the growth and mortality analysis of the burrito grunt A n i s o t remus interru p t u s on the coast of Colima, México. The estimated growth parameters are: L¥ = 50.59 cm; W¥ = 5,051.04 g; k = 0.147 years- 1; to = -0.916 years; A0 . 9 5 = 19.46 years. Most of the growth occurred during the first year of life, when the grunt grows 12.52 cm, the second year it grows 4.95 cm and the third, 4.60 cm. The highest value of the condition index took place between February and September. The total mortality rate (Z) was calculated as 0.53 years- 1. These values are basic for the plan of administration of the fishery of this species.

The influence of the 1992-1993 El Niño events on the reproductive behavior of the Scomber japonicus peruanus (Chub mackerel) was studied from samples collected monthly, along the Peruvian coast (3º23'S-14º00'S), from January 1990 to December 1993. The monthly variation of the gonadosomatic index and the frequency of the periods of gonad maturation evidenced that the spawning of the species occurred all year long, being more intense in summer. The values of the gonadosomatic index were higher during the occurrence of the 1992-1993 El Niño, while the body weight and gonad weight decreased. Regarding the condition factor, its values decreased in females over 35 cm in fork length.

Species in the coral trout complex Plectropomus spp. are some of the most desired and exploited in the Indo-Pacific, although data are limited for most species. Demographic parameters of blue-spot coral trout, Plectropomus laevis, were estimated on the basis of specimens collected from five regions of the Great Barrier Reef and Torres Strait, Australia, between 1995 and 2005 to define demography and population status over a broad range. In total, 1249 individuals were collected to estimate growth, mortality and reproductive parameters. Growth parameters based on the von Bertalanffy model were K = 0.096 year–1, L∞ = 1159 mm fork length (FL) and the best-fit model suggested non-asymptotic growth over the size and age ranges represented in the sample. Maximum age was 16 years, total mortality was estimated at 0.39 (±0.031), and estimated size and age at first maturity were 299 mm FL (range: 299–872) and at 1 year (range: 1–6.5), respectively, with the size range over which sex change occurred at 460–872 mm FL. Population parameters and available relative abundance estimates indicated that long-term sustainable harvest rates of P. laevis will be lower than those for P. leopardus and species-specific size-based management measures are necessary to ensure the species is not overfished.

Ikan cakalang (Katsuwonus pelamis Linnaeus, 1758) merupakan salah satu sumberdaya ikan pelagis besar yang mempunyai nilai ekonomis penting. Informasi mengenai struktur ukuran dan beberapa parameter populasinya masih sangat terbatas khususnya di perairan Indonesia timur. Penelitian ini dilakukan di Morotai, Biak dan Jayapura dari Januari sampai Desember 2013. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk menganalisis ukuran ikan yang tertangkap dan menganalisis parameter populasi meliputi laju pertumbuhan, mortalitas dan tingkat eksploitasi. Estimasi parameter pertumbuhan, mortalitas dan laju eksploitasi dihitung menggunakan program FiSAT (FAO-ICLARM Stock Assessement Tools). Ukuran ikan cakalang hasil tangkapan pancing tonda dan pancing ulur berkisar antara 15 – 94 cmFL (Fork Length), dengan modus antara 40-45 cmFL. Ukuran pertama kali tertangkap sebesar 40,1 cmFL dan kebanyakan adalah ukuran ikan yang sedang memijah. Hasil analisis menggunakan FiSAT II diperoleh laju pertumbuhan (K) sebesar 0,41/tahun, panjang asimptotik (L) 101,85 cmFL. Laju kematian alami (M) 0,6 / tahun, laju kematian karena penangkapan (F) 0,62 /tahun dan laju mortalitas total (Z) 1,22 /tahun. Tingkat eksploitasi ikan cakalang hampir fully exploited (E= 0,46). Disarankan tidak perlu ada penambahan upaya penangkapan atau status quo untuk menjaga agar sumberdaya ikan cakalang tetap terjaga kelestariannya. Skipjack tuna (Katsuwonus pelamis Linnaeus, 1758) is one of the large pelagic fish resources which have high economic value. Information on the size structure and population parameters is still limited especially in the waters of eastern Indonesia. The Research was conducted from January to December 2013 at Morotai, Biak and Jayapura. The aim of this study was to analyze the size of the fish caught and some of population parameters such as the growth rate, mortality rates, and exploitation rate. Estimated of growth parameters, mortality and exploitation rate using the program FiSAT (FAO-ICLARM Stock Assessement Tools). The size of skipjack tuna caught by troll line and handline in between 15-94 cmFL, with a mode of 40-45 cmFL. The Length at first capture was 40.1 cmFL, most of them had condition of spawning. By using program FiSAT II analysis resulted that growth rate (K) of skipjack tuna was 0.41/year, with length asimptotik (L) reaches 101.85 cmFL. The natural mortality rate (M) was 0.6 / year. The fishing mortality rate (F) was 0.62 / year and total mortality rate (Z) was 1.22 / year. The exploitation rate of skipjack tuna was nearly fully exploited (E = 0.46). It was recommended the exploitation rate of this fish should be no additional effort (status quo) to keep sustainability of the skipjack tuna resource.

Tingginya permintaan pasar terhadap rajungan mengakibatkan aktivitas penangkapannya berlangsung secara intensif. Selat Malaka merupakan salah satu daerah penangkapan rajungan yang penting di Indonesia. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengestimasi parameter populasi dan tingkat eksploitasi rajungan (Portunus pelagicus) di perairan Asahan dan sekitarnya. Pengumpulan data bulanan dilakukan pada bulan Juni 2015 sampai dengan Nopember 2016. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa musim penangkapan berlangsung sepanjang tahun dengan puncak pada bulan Juli dan Oktober, puncak pemijahan terjadi pada bulan Januari dan Agustus. Ukuran lebar karapas pertama kali tertangkap dengan gillnet (Lc) dan ukuran pertama kali matang gonad (Lm) masing-masing sebesar 109,6 mm dan 104,1 mm. Laju pertumbuhan (K) sebesar 1,38/tahun dan lebar karapas asimtotik (L) sebesar 183,10 mm. Laju kematian total (Z) rajungan sebagai 4,31 per tahun, laju kematian karena penangkapan (F) dan laju kematian alami (M) masing-masing 2,96 per tahun dan 1,35 per tahun; laju eksploitasi (E) diestimasi sebesar 0,69. Tingkat pemanfaatan rajungan di perairan Asahan diduga telah melewati optimal, sehingga perlu dilakukan pengelolaan melalui pengurangan jumlah unit gillnet rajungan sebanyak 38% dari kondisi saat ini. Blue swimming crab faced intensive fishing pressure due to the high market demand. The Malacca Strait is one of important fishing area for blue swimming crab. The research aims to estimate the population parameters and exploitation rate of blue swimming crab (Portunus pelagicus) in the Asahan and adjacent waters. A monthly data were collected from June 2015 to November 2016 that caught by Gillnet. The results showed that the fishing season takes place throughout the year with peaks in July and October, meanwhile peak of spawning season in January and August. The carapace width at first capture (Lc) and first mature (Lm) were 109.6 mm and 104.1 mm, respectively. The growth rate (K) was 1.38 / year and the asymptotic length (L) was 183.10 mm. Total mortality rate (Z) was 4.31 per year, fishing mortality rate (F) and natural mortality rate (M) were 2.96 per year and 1.35 per year respectively; Exploitation rate (E) was estimated at 0.69. It means that the exploitation rate of swimming crab in the Asahan waters found exceed the optimum level, therefore the management measures needs to reduce effort (unit) of gillnet by a 38% of actual level.

Abstract. Mulya MB, Jhon AH, Harahap ZA. 2021. Population dynamics of anchovy pekto (Stolephorus waitei) in the waters of Malacca Strait, North Sumatra, Indonesia. Biodiversitas 22: 2693-2698. Anchovy pekto or Stolephorus waitei (Engraluidae: Clupeiformes) is one of the fish in the eastern coastal part of North Sumatra, occupying the waters of Malacca Strait. This research presents the population dynamics of S. waitei following its age, growth, mortality, and recruitment pattern based on the length-frequency data. Fork length (FL) and total weight (TW) data of S. waitei were collected at three sites from April to September 2018. A total of 1994 specimens with FL from 4.0 to 6.7 cm and TW from 0.2 to 2.3 g with the length-weight relationship of TW = 0.073FL3.0046 (R2=0.765) indicated a near isometric and positive allometric growth in the water region. The relative condition factor (Kn) ranged from 1.01 to 1.02, indicating an estimate of good condition of the fishes. The growth parameters based on von Bertalanffy was 6.56 cm (L?) with the growth coefficient (K) of 0.34 yr-1 and t0 (anchovy age at zero length ) of 0.6506. The total mortality (Z), natural mortality (F), and catch mortality (M) of S. waitei were 0.64, 1.39, and 0.75 yr-1 respectively, which suggest that the fishing activities of S. waitei are still in normal intensity. The recruitment pattern of S. waitei was stable between April and August with its peak in June by 14.21%. The fishing activities may then be limited during the spawning months (May to June) of S. waitei to maintain their population in the Strait of Malacca.

ABSTRACTThe Sentani Gudgeon Fish (Oxyeleotris heterodon, Weber 1907) from the family Butidae with the general name Sentani Gudgeon is known locally as Gabus Malas and Himen. Sentani Snakehead Fish is one source of animal protein that is very important for the community around Lake Sentani. The population of the Sentani Gudgeon Fish species is at a crucial level. The issue could be affected by environmental pressures, continuous catches, competition with introduced species from outside Papua, intensive predation systems, and imbalances in ecological systems. The condition made a decline in population size until it became extinct. Gudgeon Sentani fish is the main target of catching in the lake. This condition significantly affects stock, size when first captured, population decline, reproductive cycle, and average catch. Until now, data and information on the growth of snakehead fish as the basis for fisheries management in the waters of Lake Sentani are not widely known. Considering the importance of preserving the native species of Lake Sentani, especially the Snakehead Fish, efforts to manage the fisheries in Lake Sentani's waters are urgent. This research was conducted in March - October 2020, located at Lake Sentani. The specimens were obtained from the catch of fishers with various gill nets and chopsticks. Enumerators or field assistants assisted the recording of the number and measurement of the total length of fish caught by fishermen daily. The results of the analysis showed: asymptotic size (L?) 46.20 cm, growth coefficient (K) 0.29, the total mortality rate (Z) 0.80 per year, natural mortality (M) 0.74 per year, the mortality rate due to fishing (F) 0.06 per year and exploitation rate (E) 0.075 per year.

Tunas (Scombridae) have been assumed to be among the fastest and most efficient swimmers because they elevate the temperature of the slow-twitch, aerobic locomotor muscle above the ambient water temperature (endothermy) and because of their streamlined body shape and use of the thunniform locomotor mode. The purpose of this study was to test the hypothesis that juvenile tunas swim both faster and more efficiently than their ectothermic relatives. The maximum sustainable swimming speed (U(max), the maximum speed attained while using a steady, continuous gait powered by the aerobic myotomal muscle) and the net cost of transport (COT(net)) were compared at 24 degrees C in similar-sized (116–255 mm fork length) juvenile scombrids, an endothermic tuna, the kawakawa (Euthynnus affinis) and the ectothermic chub mackerel (Scomber japonicus). U(max) and COT(net) were measured by forcing individual fish to swim in a temperature-controlled, variable-speed swimming tunnel respirometer. There were no significant interspecific differences in the relationship between U(max) and body mass or fork length or in the relationship between COT(net) and body mass or fork length. Muscle temperatures were elevated by 1.0-2.3 degrees C and 0.1-0.6 degrees C above water temperature in the kawakawa and chub mackerel, respectively. The juvenile kawakawa had significantly higher standard metabolic rates than the chub mackerel, because the total rate of oxygen consumption at a given swimming speed was higher in the kawakawa when the effects of fish size were accounted for. Thus, juvenile kawakawa are not capable of higher sustainable swimming speeds and are not more efficient swimmers than juvenile chub mackerel.
