Fish Taxonomy
 
Description Cephalopods are exclusively marine mollusc (~800 species) characterised by a bilateral body,
prominent head and set of arms. They play a key role in many marine ecosystems, both as
predators and prey (Boyle & Rodhouse, 2005) and represent one of the most valuable
commercial marine resources (Arkhipkin et al., 2015) contributing global catches of 3.6
million tonnes in 2018 (FAO, 2020). Cephalopods were fished from the Indian Seas as by-catch
in shrimp trawls and currently contribute as one of the most important exploited marine fishery
resources (CMFRI 2020) from India. During 1959, the annual catch of cephalopods that was
349 tonnes (Silas et al., 1982) increased drastically to 1.61 lakh tonnes in 2020. They are
important resource in the Indian export trade, contributing to 15-20% annually.
