Abstract

The most important species of fish caught from Thai waters is anchovy, locally called pla katak, distributed in both the inshore and offshore waters at depths ranging from 5 m to 60 m, with 70 per cent of the resources distributed in the Gulf of Thailand. In terms of quantity, at 174,000 tonnes, anchovy comes just behind trash fish (over one million tonnes) in Thailand’s fish production for 1996.
