Reproductive biology of three important small indigenous fish species mola (Amblypharyngodon mola), punti (Puntius sophore) and chela (Chela cachius) was studied for 12 months from January to December, 1999 in the Department of Fisheries Management, Bangladesh Agricultural University, Mymensingh. Gonadosomatic index (GSI) and ova diameter were analysed to determine their reproductive cycle. Thr...

Plastic waste can be found everywhere, including in the Koto Panjang Dam. As plastic degraded, microplastic materials may distributed water and it accidentally swallowed by omnivorous fishes such as Puntius schawanafeldii. To understand presence of fish stomach, a research has been conducted December 2020 - February 2021. The number P. schawanafeldii captured was 30 using net 3-5 inch mesh size...

The present study describes the molecular phylogenetic analysis of Dactylogyroides longicirrus (Monogenea: Dactylogyridae) infecting the gill filaments of fish Puntius sophore from the site Guwahati, Assam, India. The parasite Dactylogyroides longicirrus (Tripathi, 1959) Gusev, 1976 from Northeast Indian region is presented based on sequence data of a 738 base-pair fragment of ribosomal 18S sma...

Drying of fish is a traditional method for storing fishes long periods without any significant damages. Effects two smoking and microwave drying on moisture protein content (Puntius sophore) was studied to determine the benefits preserving retaining fish. Collected were dried in about 12 hours using at different power levels 140W, 280W 560W time period. The raw found be 70.78±2.2% 18.78±1.06 mg...

Fishes currently assigned to Oreichthys cosuatis from the Western Ghats are shown to belong to a closely-related group of three valid species: Puntius coorgensis, which is raised from synonymy, and two new species, O. duospilus and O. incognito. Oreichthys coorgensis can be distinguished from its congeners by a combination of characters that include 22-23+1-2 scales in the longitudinal series w...

The metacercariae of Centrocestus formosanus, a minute intestinal trematode of mammals and birds, were detected in the freshwater fish, Puntius brevis, from Vientiane Municipality, Lao PDR. The metacercariae were experimentally fed to mice, and adult flukes were recovered in their small intestines 7 days later. The adult flukes were morphologically characterized by having 32 (rarely 34) circumo...
