Tremendous alterations have been registered on the river Ganga due to multifarious stressor operating on it. Accordingly fishery of the river in general and that of the sensitive species in particular is facing serious threats. So the fish catch from the river Ganga has been declined, and loss of species diversity also has been reported. Further the deterioration in habitat conditions lead to depletion in sensitive native species and invasion of exotic fishes. The increasing exotic stock may cause severe threat to the valuable native species like Indian major carps and large catfishes. Drastic depletion in valuable native fish species; rapid invasion and establishment of resilient exotic fishes is a matter of great concern and warrant serious efforts for conservation of valuable native species of the river. Hence, the present study had been carried out to unravel the arrival and establishment of hardy exotic fishes in the Ganga river system at Allahabad. Not Available |
