Ichthyofaunal diversity of Arunachal Pradesh, India: A part of Himalaya biodiversity hotspot SD Gurumayum, L Kosygin, Lakpa Tamang Abstract A systematic, updated checklist of freshwater fishes of Arunachal Pradesh is provided. A total of 259 fish species under 105 genera, 34 families and 11 orders has been compiled based on present collection, available collections and literatures during the year 2014 to Thirty four fish species has been added to the previous report of 225 fish species. Besides, the state is type localities of 47 fish species and 32 species are considered endemic in the state. The fish fauna includes 19 threatened species as per IUCN status. The state has high fisheries potential as it harbour many commercially important food, sport or ornamental fishes. The fish fauna is a mixture of endemic hill streams, Assamese, and widely distributed forms. Keywords: Biodiversity, Fish, conservation status, commercial importance, Arunachal Pradesh Introduction Arunachal Pradesh is located between N and N latitude and E and E longitude and has 83,743 square km area. The state is a part of the Himalaya biodiversity hotspot with combination of diverse habitats with a high level of endemism. The land is mostly mountainous with the Himalayan ranges running north south and the entire territory forms a complex hill system with varying elevations ranging from 50m in the foot-hills and gradually ascending to about 7000 m traversed throughout by a number of rivers and rivulets totaling to an estimated length of 2000 km. The mightiest of these rivers is Siang, called the Tsangpo in Tibet, which becomes the Brahmaputra after it is joined by the Dibang and the Lohit in the plains of Assam. Other major rivers traversing the state are Dikrong, Ranga, Siyom, Tirap, Subansiri and Kameng. Rainfall varies from 1000mm in higher reaches to 5750 mm in the foot-hill areas, spread over 8-9 months excepting the drier days in winter. This diversity of topographical and climatic conditions has made the state rich with various flora and fauna. Fish is one of the important bio resources which can be used as food, ornamental and in sport industry. Many researches on various fauna of the state is being taken up by different institutions as the bio-resources in the state had not been completely explored as most of the areas are located in unapproachable mountainous steep terrain with dense forest cover. There are still several undescribed species and far too few taxonomists to identify them, especially in such biodiversity-rich areas. Even now number of new species discovered from this state is still progressing as many researchers have taken special interest in fish taxonomy in this region because of its richness in the biological diversity. History on the report on fish of Arunachal Pradesh is dated back as early as 1839 where McClelland [1] described 4 fish species from this state, then Chaudhuri [2] reported 21 fish species from his Abor expedition during , subsequently lots of fragmentary reports have come up from various water bodies (Hora [3], Jayaram and Mazumdar [4], Menon [5], Srivastava [6], Dutta and Sen [7], etc.). Still extensive faunal inventorizations by eminent researchers from Manipur University, Rajiv Gandhi University, Arunachal Pradesh, Zoological Survey of India (ZSI), Itanagar, Gauhati University, ICAR and other Institutes are continuing their taxonomic surveys augmenting the species list of the state (Sen [8], Nath et al [9],Tamang and Chaudhry [10], Ng and Tamang [11], Lokeshwar and Vishwanath [12], Tamang [13], Sinha and Tamang [14],Tamang and Sinha [15], Tamang and Sinha [16], Arunachalam et al [17], Darshan et al [18],Tamang et al [19], Vishwanath and Darshan [20], Kosygin [21], Tesia and Bordoloi [22] etc ). A foremost work on the compilation of fish species available throughout the state was carried out by Nath and Dey [23] ~ 337 ~
2 resulting into revelation of as much as 131 fish species. Then from the year 2000 onwards explosion of literature on taxonomic research of new fish species discovered has been witnessing from this area. The most recent and notable works on the compilation of fish species reported was carried out by Bagra et al. [24] where they listed 213 fish species along with 7 new species discovered from the state and Sen and Khynriam [25], also listed 225 total fish species of the state. Besides these, there have been additions of new discoveries and new reports enriching the fish diversity of the state. Materials and methods The state is traversed throughout by a number of rivers and rivulets totaling to an estimated length of 2000 km. According to National Wetland Atlas, ISRO [26] the state has a total number of 128 rivers/streams and more than 1406 number of other wetlands which includes major ponds, lakes and reservoirs, covering total area of 15,5728 ha. A checklist of fishes of the Arunachal Pradesh has been prepared based on present collection, available collections in the National Zoological Collections of ZSI Itanagar and Universities and by consulting available literatures during the year 2014 to Fishes collected from the surveys of various water bodies viz., Dikrong river, Poma river, Ashopani river, Eme river, Eje river, Ethun river, Deopani river, Simari River, Dipu river, Senkhi river, Basarnalo river, Mehao, Ganga and Sally lakes and other small streams etc during the year 2014 to 2016 were identified and included in the list. The updated scientific names of valid taxa available in this list have followed that of catalog of fishes, California Academy of Sciences. Economic importance of fishes was worked out and also consulted reports of Goswami et al. [27] and Sakar and Ponniah [28] and for distribution Sen and Khynriam [25] was followed. The conservation status of 259 fish species reported in the present work was also worked out by following IUCN Red list of Threatened species [29]. Results and Discussion A systematic, updated checklist of freshwater fishes of Arunachal Pradesh is provided. It includes a total of 259 fish species under 105 genera, 34 families and 11 orders. As per the perusal of available literatures and scrutinizing the deposited species available in the museums of ZSI, APRC, Itanagar; ZSI, Kolkata and Rajiv Gandhi University, Itanagar and also collection from different water bodies of Arunachal Pradesh, we came across and conclude herein that there are 34 more species that need to be added in the previous records of 225 species resulting into a total of 259 species reported from the state (Table 1). Out of 259 fish species listed here, altogether 152 fish species is currently housed in Arunachal Pradesh Regional Centre, ZSI which were collected from various faunastic surveys as early as 1983 by distinguished scientists. The state has been reported as type locality of 47 fish species, of which 14 type species are deposited in APRC museum and 7 type species are available in ZSI Head Quarter in Kolkata (Table 2). At present 32 of the fish species are endemic to the state. Discovering of many fish species new to science and many new reports within a short span of time from this state reflects rich biodiversity resources of the state. Majority of the fish reported from the state has been come from the Siang, Noadihing, Dibang and Subansiri rivers and their tributaries (Fig. A) and most of the collection sites were found to be congregating around the lower altitude region of these rivers. Only few new species of fish has been reported from important river like Kameng River and its tributaries which lies on the western side of the state in higher altitude area. Though situated in the high altitude region of Greater or Higher Himalayas with heights greater than 6000m having precipitous slopes and deep gorges, from tributaries of upper reaches of Siang River like Siyom and Siren, as much as six new fish has been discovered. In contrast, so far no fish which is new to science has been reported from the mighty river like Lohit and it is tributaries. Despite their small size and less known, rivers like Ranga and Dikrong and their tributaries which lies within the lesser or Lower Himalayas range with an elevation up to 2500 m, are rich in bioresources especially in terms of fish diversity. Description of as many as 12 new fish species have come from these rivers reflecting biodiversity opulence of the areas. Another reason may possibly due to easy accessibility of the area since these areas are located in lower altitude region and not very far from the human habitations. Before the present study, the most recent authenticated number of total fish species available in the state were 225 fishes by Sen and Khynriam [25]. Though Bagra et al. [24] have reported 213 species in their publication; the authors put taxonomic status of 27 species as uncertain. After wards many new fish species have been discovered by various workers from different river systems along with various new records from the state and some unreported published data make the total species list to 259. However, report of some fishes from the state, like Barilius dogarsinghi Hora 1921, Garra mcclellandi (Jerdon, 1849), Garra gravelyi (Annandalei, 1919), Glyptothorax platypogonides (Bleeker 1855), Glyptothorax sinensis (Regan 1908), Glyptothorax trilineatus Blyth, 1860, Neolissochilus dukai (Day, 1878), Neolissochilus stevensonii (Day, 1870) and Osteochilus vittatus (Valenciennes, 1842), Salmophasia boopis (Day, 1873), Schistura kangjupkhulensis (Hora 1821), Schistura manipurensis (Chaudhuri 1912), Schistura sikmaiensis (Hora 1921), Schistura vinciguerrae (Hora, 1935) though we have included in the list, are doubtful since the fishes are apparently restricted to regions or drainages, so needs further confirmation regarding its distribution in the state. In the present study, highest diversity was observed in the family Cyprinidae with 95 species (36.8%) in which the genus Garra retains the highest diversity (21 species). Next to Cyprinidae, the catfish family Sisoridae retains the second highest species diversity representing 40 species (15.5%) in which the genus Glyptothorax has the highest diversity (15 species), followed by the family Nemacheilidae with 25 species (9.7%) in which the genus Schistura retains the highest diversity (14 species). Species composition represented by other groups are as follows in descending order: Family: Bagridae (14 species); Cobitidae (11 species); Channidae (8 species); Siluridae and Erethistidae (7 species each); Psilorhynchidae, Schilbeidae, Mastecembelidae, Amblycipitidae, Chandidae, and Badidae (4 species each); Synbranchidae, and Belontidae (3 species each); Notopteridae, Balitoridae, and Olyridae (2 species each) and remaining 14 families Anguillidae, Clupeidae, Engraulidae, Syngnathidae, Clariidae, Heteropneustidae, Chacidae, Salmonidae, Belonidae, Pillaiidae, Nandidae, Chichlidae, Gobiidae, and Anabantidae has least diversity represented solely by single species each. Study on the conservation of fauna becomes very important now days because of its crucial role in ecosystem sustenance. Loss of biodiversity, especially endemic species, is a serious concern worldwide which cautions about the conservation imperatives to be adopted at the national and global levels to ~ 338 ~
3 check the extinction of species. Though the state lies within the one of the biologically hot spot region of the world, alarming effects of so call civilization does not spare the region. There are many threats to the fish fauna of the state because of rampant habitat destruction and overexploitation which is very prevalent in the state. To obtain a comprehensible picture of the conservation status of the fishes available in the state, status of the 259 fish species has worked out following IUCN [29]. It was found that 19 fish species has come under threatened category which includes 5 Endangered (EN) and 14 Vulnerable (VU). Fishes which come under endangered category are 1. Tor putitora, 2. Devario horai, 3. Lepidocephalichthys arunachalensis, 4. Schistura kangjupkhulensis, and 5. Pillaia indica. Another 22 species of fishes are considered as Near Threatened (NT), 141 species as Least Concern (LC) and 25 species are categorized under data deficient However, 52 fish species which are reported here are not evaluated. Interestingly, distribution of 32 fish species are restricted in the state, and considered as endemic to the Arunachal Pradesh, out of this two species, viz. Devario horai and Lepidocephalichthys arunachalensis categorized as endangered and two species viz., Aborichthys tikaderi and Pseudecheneis sirenica are considered as vulnerable according to IUCN [29]. The general concept of the people of north eastern India all fishes are meant to be eaten applies in the state as well, only the preference of one fish species to another exist. Popular cold water fishes like Schizothorax richardsonii, Schizothorax prograstus, Tor tor, Tor putitora, Neolissochilus hexagonolepis etc. have high food value costing more than 800/kg in the local fish market. Almost all the fish available here have economic value either as food, game or ornamental. The north eastern region of India alone accounts for nearly 85% of the freshwater ornamental fish trade which at present is dominated by the wild-caught species where the state of Arunachal Pradesh is one of the major contributors in this lucrative trade. The state with its varied topographic and climatic conditions coupled with rich bio-resources is considered as one of the gold mines for ornamental fishes. Since the state is dissected by many rivers and rivulets it provides ample prospect for sports fishery developments and can offer good angling opportunities. Besides, the state has many unchartered river terrains unknown to mankind which may have the potential for international eco-tourism and may provide adventure sport activities. Some of the places were trout and Mahseer fishing opportunities already available at the state are Bhalukpong and Tipi on the river Kameng, Pasighat on the river Siang, and Tezu on the river Lohit.

The state is also one of the best places to go for Fishing & Angling in India. A significance finding from this study is that out of 756 fresh water fish species reported from the entire country according to NBFGR database INDFISH [30], 259 fish species has been recorded in this state alone, which is more than one fourth of the total number of fish present in the country (27%). Within less than a decade 21 new fish species has discovered from this state reflecting biodiversity significance of the state. However the serious concern for the environmentalist is the presence of 5 fish species as endangered and 14 species as vulnerable and 22 species as near threatened category by IUCN Red list. Nowadays most biologists acknowledged the importance of biodiversity conservation since, they aware that habitat destruction is one of the most important factors for extinction of species. The present scenario in the state of Arunachal Pradesh is not exemption to it. Though included in the one of the biologically hot spot region of the world, the biological diversity of the state have suffered a lot because of anthropogenic activities. Thus, there is strong need for the conservation as well as exploration of this various fish resources available in this state. A detail literature analysis revealed that though lots of research works have already done on the fish taxonomy, proper documentation is still lacking as a result easy access to the information available becomes a constrains to researcher and policy planner. So the present research findings will be useful for scientific validations and updating of economic importance in bioprospecting aspects, biodiversity conservation and sustainable development to some extent.
