We analyzed intraspecifc diversity of Indian anchovy, Stolephorus indicus, a commercially and ecologically important
species, using mitochondrial DNA markers so as to derive insights into population structuring and historical demography.
Analyses were carried out on 128 and 138 individuals collected from 5 locations along the range of distribution using mitochondrial ATPase (843 bp) and COI (663 bp) sequences respectively. Signifcant connectivity and gene fow was detected
among fshes collected from all the geographic locations as indicated by lack of structuring in Bayesian clustering analysis
along with insignifcant ΦST values. Oceanographic features of the Bay of Bengal, Arabian Sea and Andaman Sea may be
favorable for the dispersal of anchovy larvae and subsequent gene fow. Historical demographic analyses indicated a demographic and spatial expansion taken place approximately during 125,000 years before present, the Pleistocene epoch. Indian
Ocean witnessed emergence of upwelling events and consequent increase in productivity during the Pleistocene epoch causing
a demographic and spatial expansion of anchovies. Management measures for this species should be devised considering it
as a single stock along its entire range of distribution.
