Fishery and biology of the octopus, Cistopus indicus (Orbigny, 1840) from Mumbai waters
Fishery of Cistopus indicus by trawlers at New Ferry Wharf from 2000 to 2009 in Mumbai waters is described. The catch showed an increasing trend up to 2006 and declined thereafter. The catch ranged from 2 t (2002) to 324 t (2006) and the catch rate from 0.002 kg/hr (2002) to 0.181 kg/hr (2006). The...
