“…Contrary to this, a higher cholesterol value was noticed in females compared to males of S. labiatus . The higher level of cholesterol in female fish might be because it is a prerequisite for the development of gonads, formation of basal steroids and adrenal steroidogenesis (Di Marco et al ., 2011; Jan & Ahmed, 2020; Sharma et al ., 2015, 2017; Sheikh & Ahmed, 2019). Our results are in accordance with the findings of other workers (Acharya & Mohanty, 2014; Ahmed et al ., 2019; Zakes et al ., 2016; Zhao et al ., 2018).…”

Haematological and serum biochemical parameters are a valuable tool in determining the wellbeing status of different fish species and response in close association to various biological and environmental factors, therefore the aim of the present study was to establish sex-wise reference values of haemato-biochemical parameters of S. labiatus. The haematological parameters such as haemoglobin (Hb) concentration, total erythrocyte count (RBC), total leucocyte count (WBC), packed cell volume (PCV), mean corpuscular haemoglobin (MCH), mean corpuscular haemoglobin concentration (MCHC), mean corpuscular volume (MCV) and serum biochemical parameters such as glucose, cholesterol, urea, total protein, albumin and globulin were analysed. The results revealed that the haematological parameters, i.e., Hb, RBC, WBC and PCV showed significant (P < 0.05) differences with respect to sex. Significantly (P < 0.05) higher values of Hb content (11.18 g dl −1 ), RBC count (1.88 × 10 6 mm −3 ) and PCV (36.15%) were noted in male fish than females throughout the study period, while significantly (P < 0.05) higher WBC count was noted in females (20.38 × 10 3 mm −3 ) compared to males. However, no significant (P > 0.05) difference was observed in erythrocyte indices like MCH, MCHC and MCV between sexes. The serum biochemical parameters, i.e., glucose, cholesterol and urea, also showed significant (P < 0.05) difference between the sexes, but no significant (P > 0.05) difference was noticed in total protein, albumin and globulin. Significantly (P < 0.05) highest values of glucose (116.76 mg dl −1 ) and urea (9.01 mg dl −1 ) were recorded in male S. labiatus, while highest value of cholesterol (223.53 mg dl −1 ) was noted in females. The information generated in the present study gives the basic reference values of haematological and serum biochemical parameters of S. labiatus which will be useful in monitoring the wellbeing status of fish populations. Moreover, the data will also be helpful to ascertain the occurrence of different clinical and subclinical diseases, which may in turn help to boost the overall production of this species.

“…The fish is popular ornamental fish in hilly areas and is exported from India under the name of 'Indian hill trout' or 'Hamilton's baril' as ornamental fish (100-210 mm) as well as highly known for its food value by Himalayan population achieved a market price of Rs. 160-200 per kg (Sharma et al, 2015;Mir et al, 2015;Jayalal and Ramachandran, 2012). This fish is commonly found in India, Bangladesh, Nepal (Talwar and Jhingran, 1991), Myanmar, Pakistan, Thailand and Srilanka (Eschmeyer and Fricke, 2011).…”

The study describes, for the first time, captive breeding, embryonic and larval development of Barilius bendelisis. The captive breeding trial was carried out in April, in fish farm of Directorate of Coldwater Fisheries Research (DCFR), Bhimtal, India using differnet doses of ovatide. The most appropriate dose of ovatide was reported to be 0.3 ml/kg body weight to males and 0.6 ml/kg body weight to females. Fertilized eggs measuring 1.4-1.7 mm were spherical, demersal, and transparent with dark yellow coloured yolk. Hatching occurred 140 -160 hours after fertilization at 19.09°C ± 0.395. Newly hatched larvae were transparent with yellowish yolk reserve, measuring 5.57 - 6.71 mm in total length and characterized by pigmented eye and yolk sac which completely absorbed in 72 hours.

“…All four species are commercially important for the Himalayan region, from which Barilius bendelisis achieves a market price of Rs. 160–200 per kg (Sharma et al., ). To our knowledge, no LWR data are available for Bangana dero and Chagunius chagunio .…”

Length-weight relationships of four freshwater cyprinid species from a tributary of Ganga River Basin in North India

et al. 2016

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

This paper provides length-weight relationships (LWRs) for four freshwater cyprinid fish species, namely Barilius bendelisis (Hamilton, 1807), Bangana dero (Hamilton, 1807), Chagunius chagunio (Hamilton, 1807) and Labeo dyocheilus (McClelland, 1839) from the Kosi River, a tributary of the River Ganga in northern India. Altogether 848 specimens were caught bimonthly (for B. bendelisis) and quarterly for the other three species between March 2013 and December 2014 using cast nets (9 m length, 9 m width and 1/2 cm mesh size). LWRs for two of the four species (B. dero and C. chagunio) are recorded for the first time. The present study results will be useful for fishery researchers, management and conservation in this least-explored tributary of the Ganga River Basin.
