Abstract:
Recent encounters with sicklefin (Mobula tarapacana) and bentfin (Mobula thurstoni) devil rays in the Chagos Archipelago provide the first confirmed observations of live specimens of these species in this region. Examination of illegal fishing photo archives collected during enforcement revealed these endangered species, and spinetail devil rays (Mobula mobular), are being caught within the archipelago\'s vast no-take marine protected area. Future cooperation between authorities and mobulid ray experts is crucial to improve the availability and accuracy of enforcement data and improve management of illegal fishing and mobulid ray conservation activities.
摘要:
最近在查戈斯群岛与镰刀鱼(Mobulatarapacana)和本芬(Mobulathurstoni)魔鬼射线的相遇为该地区这些物种的活体标本提供了首次确认的观察结果。检查执法期间收集的非法捕鱼照片档案发现这些濒危物种,和spinetail魔鬼射线(Mobulamobular),正被困在群岛广阔的禁止捕捞的海洋保护区内。当局与莫布里德射线专家之间的未来合作对于提高执法数据的可用性和准确性以及改善对非法捕鱼和莫里德射线保护活动的管理至关重要。
