Among the major perches landed at Chennai
Fisheries Harbour, snappers and rock cods formed
dominant groups followed by pigface breams. Among
snappers, more than 15 species were recorded at
Chennai Fisheries Harbour during 2009 (Table 1). In
trawlnet, Lutjanus lutjanus (29.9%) formed the
dominant catch followed by L. rivulatus and
L. malabaricus. In mechanised gillnet, L. rivulatus
(33.7%) formed the major catch followed by
L. malabaricus and Pinjalo pinjalo. In hooks and
line, L. rivulatus (34.4%) formed the major catch
followed by L. lutjanus, L. malabaricus and
L. argentimaculatus. The other lutjanids landed were
Aphareus rutilans, Aprion virescens and
Pristipomoides filamentosus. Lutjanus lutjanus was
landed throughout the year by trawl nets. Unusually
heavy catch of big eye snapper (L. lutjanus) was
landed, about 8.5 t, 3.2 t, and 2 t by multiday thangal
trawlers during July, August and September, 2009,
