Description In the world more than 28,500 finfishes have been
recorded so far and among these 2200 species have
been reported from India (Anon, 1998). Fish constitute
chief source of protein and people living in the
catchment areas of different aquatic systems depends
on fishes for their livelihoods. There the indigenous
traditional knowledge (ITK) brought down has turned
them into a repository of self experts in fishery sectors
in due course of time. Nevertheless, new methodology
has been devised utilising the perception of the fisher
flocks in order to determine the conservation status
of fish stocks of a particular area.
