Dogtooth tuna, Gymnosarda unicolor (Rüppell, 1838) (Fig. 1) is a pelagic tuna preferring waters of temperature between 21 and 26 oC. It is one of the principal species exploited by hook and line (recreational as well as commercial fishery) operated in the oceanic region. Meat of dogtooth tuna is white and so it has great demand and fetch high price (IUCN, 2011). However, occasional ciguatera fish poisoning in humans has been reported on consumption of dogtooth tuna. It is exported in fresh and frozen state and is used for the production of sashimi, canned tuna, and pouch products. Most of the world landings of dogtooth tuna during 1963 -2006 was from the Indian Ocean. Small scale tuna long lines for the species operating in the Indian Ocean belong to Taiwan, Srilanka, Maldives, Japan or Pakistan Not Available |
