| Abstract: | The endemic fishery in Nyanza Gulf of Lake Victoria has signs of severe overfishing. Bottom trawls were made in Nyanza Gulf from January, 1979 to December, 1981. Haplochromis spp. were collected infrequently in very low numbers and disappeared in Zone I and II in 1981. Lates niloticus dominated the catch. A hierarchical model showed that there are zonal and seasonal differences in Nyanza Gulf in fish species. |
