Present study emphasizes the availability of small indigenous fish in two fish markets located at Midnapur town. During the present study, a comparative market survey has been conducted from 1st July to 30th Sept, 2019 for the study on available small indigenous fish fauna in two fish markets of Midnapur town, one is Raja bazar, a popular and high priced fish market, and another is Gate bazar, a market of low priced fish market of the same town.
Results reveal that a total of 26 small indigenous fish species have been identified from the study sites. Among these 26 species, seven have been collected only from Gate bazar and ten only from Raja bazar and nine species have been observed as common to both the markets. The result would certainly enrich our knowledge about the availability of fish species in the fish market of Midnapur town.

Zielsetzung und Themenschwerpunkte (Objectives and Key Themes)
This study aims to investigate the availability of small indigenous fish species in two fish markets in Midnapur town, West Bengal, India. The study compares the diversity of small indigenous fish species in Raja Bazar, a high-priced market, and Gate Bazar, a low-priced market. The findings can contribute to understanding the availability and diversity of small indigenous fish in the region.
- Diversity of small indigenous fish species in two fish markets
- Comparison of species availability in Raja Bazar and Gate Bazar
- Contribution of small indigenous fish to food security and nutrition in rural communities
- Importance of small indigenous fish as a source of essential nutrients
- Impact of market dynamics on the availability of small indigenous fish species
Zusammenfassung der Kapitel (Chapter Summaries)
The study begins by outlining the importance of small indigenous freshwater fish as a vital food source for rural populations. It defines the term "indigenous" and describes the characteristics of small indigenous fish species (SIS). The study then details the objectives, which include identifying the diversity of small indigenous fish species in the two fish markets, measuring their distributional statistics using Soreson's similarity index, and examining the IUCN status of the species. The methodology section likely describes the data collection process, including the duration of the survey (from July 1st to September 30th, 2019), and the specific sampling techniques used. The systematic account chapter would present the identified species, their characteristics, and possibly include images or illustrations. The discussion chapter would likely analyze the findings, comparing the species diversity in the two markets, exploring factors influencing availability, and drawing conclusions about the overall findings. This section may also discuss the ecological and socio-economic implications of the results.
