A Study on Marine Fishery Resources of Andhra Pradesh: Ecological Aspects and Morphometrics of Common Marine Fishes of Visakhapatnam ‒ Protein Content and Bioaccumulation of Heavy Metals in Pomfret Fish Species

212 marine fishery resources were recorded in the waters of Andhra Pradesh State. Morphometric data was provided for 20 edible fishery resources landing at the fishing harbour of Visakhapatnam. The harbour area is polluted due to influx of various industrial effluents and domestic sewage. In Pampus...
