Description The fishery of Indian halibut, Psettodes
erumei (Bloch & Schneider, 1801)
declined considerably in the recent
past. In recent years their
fishery was very sporadic and catches
were represented by relatively smaller
fishes below 30-40 cm along the
the southwest coast of India. In August
2010 a large sized Psettodes erumei
measuring 60 cm TL was observed at
Cochin Fisheries Harbour, Kerala. The
reported maximum size of the species
is 64 cm TL.
