Family Clupeidae found dominant with 15 species in which <em>Dussumieriaacuta, Ilisha megaloptera </em> and <em>Escualosa thoracata</em> found abundant in most of the year, whereas Engraulidae family ranked second with 9 species among those the <em>Stolephorus indicus,</em> <em>Thryssa vitrirostris </em> and <em>Thryssa mystax</em> found in abundance. Species distribution and catch size varied with the months and showed a seasonal pattern in lagoon water. The change in salinity and temperature was observed as the main factor for change of species diversity and abundance in the Sonmiani Bay. |
