Not AAndaman and Nicobar are a group of 572 Islands located in the Bay
of Bengal which is endowed with rich marine biodiversity and coastal
ecosystems. The estimated annual harvestable potential of marine
fishery resources is 1.48 lakh tonnes whereas the present harvest
stands closer to 40,000 tonnes. The critical need to bridge the
gap between the potential and the harvest were emphasized over
these years through harnessing the coastal and deep-sea fishery
resources. However, a foremost issue that needs to be addressed
remains the reliable estimation of fish landings through standard
methodologies. Unorganized data collection and projection could
lead to misrepresentation of the fishery resources which could affect
the planning, conservation and management of resources. For proper
data collection and reporting, the stakeholders at the field level must
have adequate exposure and knowledge on the identification of
marine fish landings. This handbook aims to assist the stakeholders
engaged in fishery data collection and management with detailed
information on the commercially important fisheries across the
Islands. We strongly believe that this handbook could
act as a ready reckoner on the identification of
commercially landed marine fishes of the
Andaman and Nicobar Islandsvailable
