Octopuses popularly called as ‘devilfish’ are caught mainly as bycatch in the bottom trawl. Due to the growing demand for octopus in the international market, octopus fishery is catching up in Maharashtra. The main fish landing centers for octopus at Mumbai are New Ferry Wharf and Sassoon Docks. Octopus contribute 3% towards the total cephalopod catch in Mumbai (CMFRI, 2008). Cistopus indicus dominates the octopus fishery in Mumbai waters (Sundaram and Sarang, 2004). The other species of octopus recorded from Mumbai waters are Octopus membranaceus, Octopus dollfusi and Octopus aegina. Not Available |
