During routine visit to the Mottaigopuram fish
landing centre at Thoothukudi on 27.7.2015 and on
20.10.2015, five numbers of seahorses were
collected from the fish catch kept for auctioning.
These were caught in indigenous trawl operated
along the near shore sea grass beds at Thoothukudi.
This gear mainly targets juveniles of prawn
(especially Penaeus semisulcatus), crabs,
cephalopods and fishes. Occasionally stray numbers
of seahorses are also caught. The species obtained
in the present collections were Hippocampus fuscus,
H. trimaculatus and H. spinosissimus.
