Hiện trạng khai thác nguồn lợi cá bống họ Eleotridae ở các thủy vực ven sông Tiền

Abstract

The survey was conducted in lower Mekong River, covering Dong Thap, Vinh Long, Tra Vinh provinces from August 2015 to July 2016, to assess species of goby fish, outputs, and exploitation potential. The results show that three species are found, namely Oxyeleotris marmorata, Eleotris melanosoma, and Oxyeleotris urophthalmus. The fishermen’s education is mostly between level 1 and 2 (51% and 27%, respectively). They are virtually all male. Simple trap and trawl net are main fishing gears used (accounting for 37.8%; 22.2%), while gillnet is rarely used (2.3%). The fishing season is all year round, but mostly seen from July to November. The goby output is significantly reduced, due to the local fishermen’s poor awareness of using their fishing gears.
