The Indian Shad, Tenualosa Ilisha (Hamilton) Commonly Known As Hilsa Is Undoubtedly One Of The Most Important Edible Fish Of The Country And Is Considered As A Typical Long Distance Anadromous Fish. It Is Highly Prized And Esteemed Fish In India As Well As Other Tropical Asian Countries. In The Present Times, There Is A Massive Decline In The Availability Of This Fish In Indian Waters. The Commercial Importance Of Hilsa And Its Cultural Significance Along With Its Resource Potentiality In The Indian Sub - Continent And Other Neighbouring Countries Indicate A Vast Scope For The Research And Development Of The Fishery. However, It Seems That The Pace Of Investigations On Hilsa, Particularly In India, Has Been Slowing Down In Recent Years. The Book Attempts To Portray The Current Knowledge On The Biology And Fisheries Of Hilsa, Tenualosa Ilisha, Namely: The Behavior And Migratory Habits Of The Fish, Its Racial Variations, Age And Growth, Population Structure, General Well-Being And Condition Factor Of The Species, Morphology, Anatomy And Histology Of The Alimentary Canal In Relation To Food And Feeding Habits, Breeding Biology And Spawning Behavior As Well As Embryonic And Larval Development Of The Species. Moreover, The Findings Of Embryonic And Larval Studies And Information On The Availability Of Hilsa Fry, If Utilized In Identifying T. Ilisha In The Riverine Seed Collection, May Give A Much-Needed Boost To Aquaculture. The Basic Information On The Fundamental Aspects Of Biology As Presented In The Book Would Probably Help In Enhancing Production From The Inland Waters By Appropriate Implementation Of Administrative And Management Policies. The Book Provides The Trends In Catch And Landing Statistics Of Hilsa From The Indian Subcontinent. The Reasons For The Decline Of Hilsa Fishery In The Country As Well As Suggestions For Retrieving This Fishery Are Also Discussed. The Book Also Highlights The Progress Of Artificial Breeding As Well As Culture Prospects Of This Fish In Confined Water Bodies. The Distribution, Taxonomy And Salient Biological Characteristics Of Other Tenualosa Spp (T.Toli, T Macrura, T. Reevesii And T. Thibaudeaui) Are Also Discussed.
