DocumentOther documentSouth Pacific Islands - Marine turtle resources
A report prepared for the Fisheries Development Agency Project
1971Also available in:
The following report is based upon interviews with government and fishery officials and visits to sites of turtle activity such as nesting grounds, feeding areas, market places, turtle fisherman camps, etc. In 1969, the South Pacific Commission (SPC) and the South Pacific Islands Fisheries Development Agency (SPIFDA) sent the Marine Turtle Questionnaires to Fishery Departments in the South and Southwest Pacific and the few replies provided some background information on turtle resources. In most places the respondents to the Questionnaires were interviewed by the author and the information verified the pertinent data are included in this report. -

A report prepared for the South Pacific Islands Fisheries Development Agency
1972Also available in:
This report, covering work done in the U.S. Trust Territory of the Pacific Islands and in Papua-New Guinea, is based upon interviews with Government and fishery Officials, marine turtle fishermen and farmers, and local inhabitants in a position to contribute useful information and opinions. It also covers personal visits by the author to turtle nesting beaches and feeding areas, market places and turtle farms. It follows Informal report FI/SF/SOP/REG 102/2 by Harold Hirth. -
DocumentOther documentStock assessment for the rock lobster Panulirus homarus inhabiting the coastal waters of the People's Democratic Republic of Yemen 1984
Also available in:
No results found.The report provides an assessment based principally on the sampling of catches at the Mukalla Cold Store and associated landing sites during the three seasons from and including 1980/81. Cohort identities were established using the method of Bhattacharya. Spawning was concluded as occurring twice each year; in the month prior to February and again sometime between May and October. Yield per recruit analyses indicated that modest increases in annual catch would result from increasing the fishing mortality coefficient. To the extent of 6% more catch if the fishing mortality coefficient was increased by 25%; and 13% if the latter was increased by 67%. It was suggested that management action to seek these increases in annual catch might not be justified, particularly if associated with the introduction of substantial additional costs. In respect to the adjacent: fisheries for lobster, that: associated with the Thabut Cold Store was considered near to being fully exploited, while substantia l additional catch was suggested as possible from the fishery at Socotra.

Book (stand-alone)Manual / guideThe Living Marine Resources of the Eastern Central Atlantic. Volume 2: Bivalves, gastropods, hagfishes, sharks, batoid fishes, and chimaeras 2016
Also available in:
No results found.This multivolume field guide covers the species of interest to fisheries of the major marine resource groups exploited in the Eastern Central Atlantic. The area of coverage includes FAO fishing area 34 and part of 47. The marine resource groups included are bivalves, gastropods, chitons, cephalopods, stomatopods, shrimps, lobsters, crabs, hagfishes, sharks, batoid fishes, chimaeras, bony fishes and sea turtles. The introductory chapter outlines the environmental, ecological, and biogeographical factors influencing the marine biota, and the basic components of the fisheries in the Eastern Central Atlantic. Within the field guide, the sections on the re source groups are arranged phylogenetically according to higher taxonomic levels such as class, order, and family. Each resource group is introduced by general re marks on the group, an illustrated section on technical terms and measurements, and a key or guide to orders or families. Each family generally has an account summarizing family diagnostic characters, bi o logical and fisheries in formation, notes on similar families occur ring in the area, a key to species, a check list of species, and a short list of relevant literature. Families that are less important to fisheries include an abbreviated family ac count and no de tailed species in formation. Species in the important families are treated in detail (arranged alphabetically by genus and species) and include the species name, frequent synonyms and names of similar speci es, an illustration, FAO common name(s), diagnostic characters, biology and fisheries in formation, notes on geo graphical distribution, and a distribution map. For less important species, abbreviated accounts are used. Generally, this includes the species name, FAO common name(s), an illustration, a distribution map, and notes on biology, fisheries, and distribution. Each volume concludes with its own index of scientific and common names. -
