    The food of the Nile perch, Lates niloticus (L.), after the disappearance of the haplochromine cichlids in the Nyanza Gulf of Lake Victoria (Kenya) (1988)

    Journal of fish biology 32 (1988), S. 0

    Notes: After the disappearance of the haplochromine species in the Nyanza Gulf of Lake Victoria as a result of predation by Lates niloticus, the latter has turned its attention to aquatic invertebrates and other fish. Changes in the diet of the Nile perch with increase in its size have been observed: young L. niloticus preyed mostly on invertebrates, including crustaceans and various small aquatic insects; large, immature L. niloticus supplemented the invertebrate diet with both young and small fish; adults above 80 cm total length were mainly piscivorous. L. niloticus feeds on fish prey of about one third its own length.The tendency of L. niloticus to switch from one prey item to another, depending on availability, is reported; e.g., in the Nyanza Gulf, the prey diet has shifted from the haplochromine to Caridina nilotica and L. niloticus juveniles.

    Description: The purpose of this Fisheries Management Plan (FMP) within the Lake Victoria Fisheries Research Project was to sustain the livelihoods of the communities who depend on the fishery resources of the lake and to reduce poverty, food insecurity and unemployment. To achieve this goals, a better management of the resources, which would mobilize and include stakeholders at local, regional, national and international level was believed to be the right strategy for success.

    The Co-existence between Oreochromis niloticus and Lates niloticus in Lake Victoria (Kenya Sector). (2015)
    Kenya Marine and Fisheries Research Institute | Mombasa, Kenya
    Details
    Publication Date: 2021-05-19
    Description: The present study was undertaken to try and find out why Lates niloticus and Oreochromis niloticus have managed to co-exist in Lake Victoria (Kenya sector). The study is considered to be of tremendous scientific value not only because lates has been accused of preying on the cichlid stocks in L.Victoria but also for considering suitable management approaches to maintain viable fishery resources on long-term basis. The results presented are preliminary and the final detailed results will be presented later when the survey will have been accomplished.

    Preliminary study on the food and feeding habits of Schilbe mystus (Linn., 1762) in River Nyando (2006)

    Publication Date: 2021-05-19
    Description: Schilbe mystus (butterfish) is one of the "endangered species" of Lake Victoria, whose fishery was once of commercial importance. The annual landings have declined from about 400 mt in 1968 to a bare 15 mt in 1991. The average size of the species is smaller than that reported by Greenwood (1966). During the study, the size range sampled was 11.2 to 25.6 cm fork length with the majority measuring 14.0-15.0 cm FL. The food and feeding habits of the fish are discussed. Study on the gut content shows that S. mystus preys mainly on insects with chironomid larvae as the dominant prey.
