Study on stocks of trap s fishes around Farur Island in 2008

This report is about coral reef fishes around Farur Island and area between Bandar Lengeh and Farur Island. Specimens were sampled monthly from July 2000 to February 2001 by trap. Total of 64 species belonging to 46 genuses and 31 families were identified. Some of species were common in two areas. Length-weight and length- depth relationships were estimated for more frequent species. The growth rates for painted sweet lips (Diagramma pictum), Broomtail wrasse (Cheilinus lunulatus), Eagle ray (Lethrinus lentjan), Hunchback boxfish (Tetrosomus gibbosus) and Blassop (Chelonodon patoca) were obtained <2 and for other species 2-3.5. Mean length and weight of Batfish (Platax orbicularis) and John's snapper (Lutjanus johni) between two areas were significantly different (P<0.05).Mean weight and body depth of Tiling queen fish (Scomberoides commersonnianus) and Javelin grunter (Pomadasys kaakan) and between two areas were significantly different (P<0.05). Mean length, weight and body depth of Blaasop (Arothron alboreticulatus),Malabar blood snapper (Lutjanus malabaricus) and Orange-spotted grouper (Epinephelus coioides) not significantly different. Lm50 of some species were estimated.
