Abstract:
Coilia dussumieri, regularly referred to as the goldspotted grenadier anchovy, is a ray-finned fish species that pertains to the Engraulidae family. Estuaries and maritime waters bordering Bangladesh, Myanmar, and India are home to it. On top of that, it can be found from Thailand south to Java and the Malay Peninsula. Any species' genetic features must be scrutinized in order to govern its population smoothly and figure out whether it is well-suited for culture. Fish biology encompasses a broad spectrum of disciplines, consisting of an in-depth overview of their stature, progression, gonado-somatic index (GSI), prime mating period, and fetal growth. Biology regarding consumption and procreation has been the focus of numerous research efforts in the recent past. The main goal of this review work is to bring together the disparate information, identify the knowledge gaps for additional research on this fish species, and provide aqua culturists with some information for future, more in-depth research on the culture, management, and breeding of Coilia dussumieri.
