Foreword
The Bilingual Handbook on the Fishery Resources of the Wunbaik Reserved Mangrove Forest
is an outcome of the project Sustainable Community-based Mangrove Management in Wunbaik
Forest Reserve TCP/MYA/3204. This is a Food and Agriculture Organizaton of the United Naton,
Myanmars preliminary atempt in cooperaton with the Forest Department towards cataloguing
the fshery resources in the Wunbaik Reserved Mangrove Forest, Rakhine State, Myanmar. The
annotated and illustrated inventory is a valuable outcome for the project and base for conservaton,
management and ratonal utlizaton of the aquatc resources of the reserved forest.
Fishery resources are the important link of the food chain and it is essental to conserve every
linkage in the food chains and webs for a sustainable energy fow. This handbook is a source of basic
informaton about fsh species, relevant to aspects of identfcaton, scientfc and standardized
vernacular names, biology; habitat status of each identfed species in the reserved forest, local
economic values and utlizaton paterns. Our appreciatons are due to Mr. Khin Maung Soe and
Dr. Deiva Oswin Stanley, Integrated Mangrove Management Specialist from India the authors for
their scrupulous work and Mr. Jeremy Broadhead the backstopping Ofcer of the project for his
efcient guidance.
The handbook reports about the 72 species of fshes and shell identfed from the reserved forest
area and is the frst ever documentaton of fshery resources from the Reserved Forest. As Wunbaik
is the base for Rakhine fshery and of the ocean indirectly, steps should be initated to protect the
water holding capacity of the Wunbaik Reserved Boundary to support as the nursery ground. The
study on the Wunbaik fshery has confrmed that the mud crabs, brooders of shell and fn fshes
are in major threat and the size of the fshes have reduced considerably, which is an ALERT for
acton. The present version of this document produced should be viewed as a working document
capable of improvement and expansion with additonal informaton.

Fishery Resources of the Wunbaik Reserved Mangrove Forest
1. Introducton
Sustainable Community based Mangrove Management in Wunbaik Forest Reserve, TCP/MYA/3204
(D) is a joint venture of the Forest Department and the Food and Agriculture of the United Natons
to develop a ratonal and applicable management model to conserve and sustainably utlize
the resources in Wunbaik Mangrove Reserved Forest. There were no studies available so far to
understand the fshery resources of the Wunbaik Mangrove Reserved Forest. It was felt imperatve
to document the standing status of fshery resources, and therefore, a rapid survey was carried out
during the months February to April 2010 using the common traditonal gear inside the reserved
forest boundary. The data would also form a base for developing the Integrated Mangrove
Management Plan for the Wunbaik Reserved Forest.
The Wunbaik Mangrove Reserved Forest is endowed with several deep and shallow creeks, large
rivers; mudfats, sandy, muddy and also rocky botoms. The fertle river mouths open to the Bay
of Bengal paving paths for seasonal migraton of both anadromous and catadromous transient
fsh populaton. Mangroves are one of the important habitats for diversifed foral and faunal
assemblages. The ecosystem provides support as breeding and feeding grounds and refuge
from predaton for the major proporton of fn and shell fshes and other biodiversity. Wunbaik
Mangrove Reserved Forest consistng of 56633 acres in Yambye Township was declared as a
reserved mangrove forest in February 1931. Presently around 40% of the forest area is degraded
due to encroachment for paddy and shrimp farming and cutng wood for commercial purposes
like charcoal, brick baking and bark peeling. The remaining 53% of the forested area is virtually in
a critcal pedestal for further encroachment for paddy and shrimp farm expansions and illicit wood
extracton in an uncontrolled fashion driven by the rich business men, money lenders and middle
men populaton living around and outside the district or state with the help of the local community.
The water holding capacity of the reserved zone which supports fshery is also reduced to 6% in
to 2009
As a consequence, the mangrove habitat for fshery is invariably lost which has and would have a
major implicaton on the fshery productvity within the mangrove waters of the reserved forest
and in the estuarine and the neretc waters outside the boundary. It is obvious that the populaton
density of the fshery in the wild is directly proportonal to the health of the mangroves and areas
of mangrove waters available for fsh populaton to breed and migrate. In additon, practces
of fshing on the wunbaiks river mouth twice in both tdes, usage of minute mesh sized gear
and sieving out small sized crabs, year round mud crab harvestng in unrestrained approaches
has combined the threatening pressure on the fshery populaton and a considerable decline in

fsheries, inside and outside the reserved zones has been recorded. A total of 62 species of fn
fshes, 5 species of crustaceans and 5 species of mollusks were identfed and many more are
there to be studied. The signifcantly small sized fshes recorded proclaim the candid fshing stress
on the survival of the existng populaton.
This publicaton, Fishery Resources of the Wunbaik Reserved Mangrove Forest is a user friendly
bilingual handbook providing informaton on Scientfc, English and Vernacular names of the
fshes, simple morphological descriptons, the habitat biology; fsh size class available in mangrove
waters, local prices and utlizaton practces. A gamut of readers from all level of stakeholders from
the local community, researchers to the administrators and others involved in natural resource
conservaton will be benefted

6. RecommendatonsfortheFisheryManagementin
the Wunbaik Reserved Mangrove Forest
Wunbaik is declared a Reserved Forest for the conservaton and protecton of biodiversity
(fora and fauna) according to the Forest Law (1992) and fshes are considered as the
forest produce of mangroves according to the Burma Wild Life Protecton Act 1936, 1927,
1994. Commercial benefts of fsheries resources may be obtained from areas outside the
reserve boundary. Over past decades, however, the quality and quantty of fsh captured
within the reserved forest boundary and the health and vitality of the mangrove forest has
deteriorated dramatcally due to inappropriate management - both in legal and ecological
terms. Studies conducted between February and April 2010 indicates the major reasons
for the decline to include:
i) Hydrological disrupton through constructon of embankments and bunds
which block and reduce the water holding capacity of mangrove creeks;
ii) Encroachment into mangrove areas for paddy and shrimp farming;
iii) Use of chemicals and pestcides for farming purposes, resultng in the killing of
juvenile fsh populatons;
iv) Stagnaton, acidifcaton and putrefacton of enclosures of land and water due
to poorly designed sluices;
v) River mouth fence net fshing;
vi) Use of poison and explosives for fshing;
vii) The use of fshing nets with very small mesh size;
viii) Catching of gravid fsh and crabs (brooders);
ix) Trapping of juvenile crabs.
To reverse the situaton and replenish, conserve and manage the fsheries resources of
Wunbaik Reserved Forest, the following recommendatons are suggested. Such actons
will help provide sustainable livelihood support for Wunbaik Reserved Forest (WBRF)
users and others dependent on fshing
A. Encroachment
I. Encroachment of reserve forest waters and land for shrimp pond constructon
is illegal as per the reserve forest law. As on 2009, one thousand one hundred
and seventy seven (1177) hectares of the reserved forest area, however, currently
controlled by 9 private shrimp farm owners who not from the local community.
Bunds constructed for shrimp pond establishment should be demolished to
facilitate the free fow of water and seedlings allowing regeneraton of mangroves
within the reserved zone.

II. Involve/employ local poor fshers dependent on WBRF mangroves in forest
restoraton programs;
B. Fishing
I. Strictly enforce the forest laws and regulate utlizaton of WBRF including water
bodies to protect natural resources within the reserve, and to support fsheries
resources in adjoining sea areas given the direct relatonship with the ecological
health and vitality of the mangrove area;
II. Maintain a WBRF user register and a photo identty card system to keep track of
resource use within the reserved zone (Forest Department responsible);
III. Prohibit commercial fshing inside WBRF according to the Reserve Forest law. In
relaton, craf with capacity beyond a specifed limit should be banned from entering
WBRF waters;
IV. Specify types of fshing gear and craf permited for use inside WBRF waters. Fishers
using the WBRF should hold a license for authorized fshing gear and craf (Forest
Department and Fisheries Department responsible);
V. Establish a system to monitor fsh catch from the WBRF waters (Forest Department
responsible);
VI. Declare a maximum catch from the reserve forest area for household utlizaton/
consumpton (Forest Department responsible);
VII. Closely regulate creek mouth fshing. The capture of brooders at creek mouths on
both tdes has caused fsh populatons within WBRF waters to decline signifcantly
(Forest Department responsible);
VIII. Immediately enforce prohibiton of destructve fshing practces within and adjacent
to the WB reserved forest, including use of poisons, dynamite, electric shocks, etc.
IX. Impose three year restricted entry and limited human actvity in WBRF as an
immediate remedial measure to conserve and replenish fn and shell fsh resources
in the reserved forest and surrounding areas;
X. Declare and strictly enforce WBRF Conservaton Holidays during the fsh spawning
season (post monsoon months) to allow commercial fsh species that depend heavily
on mangroves to proliferate
XI. Entry for any reason should be prohibited (Forest Department responsible);
XII. Implement a rotatonal Prohibited Fishing Ground of the Year (PFGY) strategy as
suggested by villagers using Wunbaik Reserve Forest. The villagers would organise
themselves to prohibit fshing in one creek per village tract. The creek would be
rotated annually. A Five year plan for creek rotaton and protecton for every village

tract will be developed by the fshers from all the villagers in cooperaton with the
village Peace Development Commitees and simultaneously supported by the Forest
Department during the implementaton of the plan
C.Crabfshing
XIII. Enforce ban on collecton, breeding and fatening of crab for export and collecton
for sof shell crab for commercial purposes within WBRF. There are four major crab
collecton centres and several other permanent statons inside the reserve upon
which Forest Department eforts should centre;
XIV. Establish crab breeding centres outside WBRF to provide the local community a
source of income and reduce pressure on, and illegal actvity within, WBRF that
results from the high export demand for mud crab, including brooders and young
crabs below 100 grams;
D.Sanctons
XV. Announce and enforce penaltes and punishments for illegal utlizaton or exploitaton
of WBRF resources as per the Reserve Forest Law;
E. Other
XVI. Increase public awareness of the signifcance of mangroves and their role in
fsheries productvity, sustainable use of natural resources and responsible fsheries
management practce
The above recommandatons are the comprehensive outcome of the workshops, partci-
patory meetngs, inputs from the local non governmental organizatons, staf from the
Forest Department and Department of Fisheries, villagers and from the consultants
