Knowledge of family Peristediidae from Indian waters; comprising Arabian Sea, Bay of Bengal and Andaman Sea is limited. The present study aims to unwind the taxonomic ambiguity and demarcates the distribution of peristediidswithin Indian waters. Indian peristediidswere now represented by seven species; Satyrichthys laticeps, Scalicus serrulatus. Scalicus investigatoris, Scalicus orientalis, Heminodus philippinus, Peristedion amblygenys and Satyrichthys milleri, among them four species were the first findings from the study area. A key to all genera and species of peristediids recorded from India as well as the diagnosis, synonyms and distribution of each species are provided.Keywords

Historically, India has been projected as one of the major elasmobranch fishing nations in the world. However, management and conservation efforts are not commensurate with this trend. Along with the Wildlife (Protection) Act, 1972, several generic conservation measures are in place at the regional/local level. But India is still a long way from meeting global conservation commitments. We present here the status of elasmobranch management and conservation in India, with the specific objective of identifying the gaps in the existing set-up. We also present recommendations based on a national consultative workshop held at the Central Marine Fisheries Research Institute, Kochi, in February 2020. We recommend the implementation of a National Plan of Action (NPOA-Sharks) and more inclusive governance and policymaking for elasmobranch conservation in India.Keywords
