The Chilika, situated along India's eastern coast (in Odisha), is the largest brackish water lagoon in Asia with water spread varying from 906 km2 during summer to 1165 km2 during monsoon. It is among the most internationally focused Ramsar site in India owing to its rich biodiversity, including species that have been categorized as threatened by IUCN.Full Text

The Pacific whiteleg shrimp, Litopenaeus vannamei (Boone, 1931) is a natural inhabitant of tropical marine waters along the Eastern Pacific coast, from the Gulf of California (Mexico) to Tumber (North of Peru), where the year-round water temperature normally exceeds 20°C (refs 1, 2). Presently, it is the most widely cultured shrimp species all over the world. Its farmed area is expanding mainly due to the availability of specific pathogen-free (SPF) seeds in the international market and its phenomenal success in farming systems due to the ability to tolerate wide salinity ranges (0-45 ppt), fast growth rate, low dietary protein requirement (30-35%), column feeding habit and amenability for crowding and very high stocking densities3,4.Full Text

The present study reports a record of invasive Loricariid catfish Pterygoplichthys disjunctivus (Weber, 1991) (Siluriformes: Loricariidae) from the Bhagirathi– Hooghly system of River Ganga in West Bengal, India. The species was encountered from Farakka and Balagarh regions of Ganga, two areas with different hydrological regimes. The average total length and total weight of the collected species was in the range of 360–450 mm and 314-545 g respectively. This exotic species is reported to contribute about 10% of the total catch from the Balagarh area of the river stretch, while its occurrence is sparse in Farakka. The algivorous nature of feeding can pose a threat to nativebottom dwelling fish due to feeding competition. As the presence of this exotic fish in the lower parts of Ganga has been confirmed, we discuss necessary management interventions like identifying the source of its introduction in order to prevent future threats from this invasive species to native river species.Keywords
