Title: Some observations on the biology of Liza macrolepis (Smith)and Mugil cephalus Linnaeus (Mugilidae) with notes on thefishery of grey mullets near Mandapam
Abstract: Chidambaram and Kuriyan, (1952) gave a brief account of the grey mullets {Mugil
spp.) of Krusadai Island in the Gulf of Mannar. The present study on the biology of Liza
macrolepis (Smith) and Mugil cephalus Linnaeus from the Palk Bay was taken up since no information
on these fishes is available. The food habits of Liza macrolepis and Mugil cephalus and
the shedding of gill raker processes in grey mullets have been dealt with elsewhere. (Luther
1962 & 1964).
