Description Among the commercially important cultivable fishes, mullets are considered as an important source of human food.
Liza macrolepis (Smith) commonly called the grey mullet is an estuarine euryhaline fish belonging to the family
Mugilidae. It is one of the most annually abundant species among the mullets of the coastal and estuarine waters around
Madras region both in terms of its number and biomass (CMFRI/ CIFRI, 1975, 1978). Moreover, it is an important member of the estuarine community and a major component in the flow of energy through the ecosystem (Odum, 1968). The ability of this grey mullet to survive in a wide range of environmental conditions is well documented by the reviews of Thomson (1954, 1966), Kinne (1964), Luther (1967) and Pillai (1972).
