Cephalopod resources in southeast and northeast coasts of India and Andaman - Nicobar waters
During 1988-'90, FORV Sagar Sampada has made 28 exclusive cruises to
three regions in the Bay of Bengal covering different seasons of the year. Cephalopods
formed one of the components of the demersal fishery resources of these
regions, with the pelagic resources remaining insignificant. The commercially important
neritic species of squids (Loligo duvauceli, Doryteuthis sibogae and
Doryteuthis singhalensis), and cuttlefish (Sepia aculeata) were comparatively
more in number and quantity than the species of oceanic squid Symplectoteuthis
oualaniensis and other less important oceanic squids. The former groups of cephalopods
were taken in demersal trawl and the latter in pelagic trawl. The distribution
and relative abundance of various neritic and oceanic group of cephalopods by area
and depth is given in the paper
