| Summary: | From September to December 2013 we carry out an analysis
of fish accompanying of shrimp in the lagoon system
Topolobampo, captured with the net of fishing churupa
assisted by three vessels, a richness of 14 species was
recorded. They were identified taxonomically highlighting
the orders Clupeiformes, Scorpaeniformes, Perciformes,
Pleuronectiformes and Tetradontiformes containing
families like Engraulidae, Scorpaenidae, Serranidae,
Gerreidae, Haemulidae, Sciaenidae, Chaetodontidae,
Achiridae, Cynoglossidae, Balistidae, and Tetraodontidae.
The species mostly captured by the three ships are
Diapterus peruvianus, Sphoeroides annulatus, Balistes
polylepis, Anchovia macrolepidota and Etropus crossotus.
Biometric parameters (length, height, and weight average)
of harvested species showed no significant differences. A.
mazatlanus(black sole) had the lowest average weight (1.70
g), while the sardine (A. macrolepidota) obtained the
highest record with 38.57 g. Most fishing importance lies in
the gray sole (E. crossotus), the crappie yellowfin (D.
peruvianus) and sardine (A. macrolepidota) both for its high
biomass and spatio-temporal distribution. In catch per unit
effort, crappie yellowfin (D. peruvianus), the cochi (Balistes
polylepis), gray sole, puffer fish (S. annulatus) and sardines
obtained values from 1.058 to 1.525 organisms per hour.
Sizes and weights stand very low, so it is urgent regulation
of fishing gear, selecting a suitable mesh light, allowing
catches are commercial and productive from an economic,
social and environmental vision. |
