Abstract

As in most fishing centres of the world, there is no organized fishery
for chondrichthyan fishes in Madras. Nevertheless, the selachians form a sizeable
incidental catch in gill nets, which are chiefly directed toward harvesting
fishes like the seer, wolf-herring and ribbonfishes. The bateoid fishes contribute
considerably to the trawl fisheries
