Title A contribution to the biology of the
halfbeak, Hyporhamphus georgii
(Cuv. & Val.) (Hemirhamphidae)
 
Creator Talwar, P K
 
Subject Fish biology
 
Description The hemirhamphids constitute an important group of the neretic-pelagic
fisheries of the Gulf of Mannar and Palk Bay. Although there are eight
species of halfbeaks distributed in these waters, Hyporhamphus georgii (C.V.)
and Hemirhamphus marginatus (Forsk.) are the only species which may be
considered of sufficient importance to constitute a distinct ' fishery'. With
a view to obtaining accurate information on the fishery biology of these common
species, a detailed investigation was taken up during 1957-59.
