Abstract

Amblygaster sirm dominates the purse seine catch. Other important species are Decapterus russelli, Rastrelliger kannagurta and Loligo singhalensis. Length frequency distribution studies of A. sirm show that the purse seiners fish in the same area and probably fish the same stocks as the small mesh gill netters in this region.
