Abstract

This study investigation on the food and feeding biology of the Thinspine sea catfish catch landed along the Veraval marine fish landing centre of the Saurashtra coast, along the Maritime of Gujarat, India were carried out during year from March 2016 to February 2017. Reveled with new proposed reasonable hypothesis on Occurrence of Empty stomach and occurrence of various food items indicated that this sp. Highly carnivorous feeding habit in exploited Thin spine sea catfish stock.
