Resumo: | Experimental beach seine surveys in 1990 in the lower Sondu-Miriu     River in Kenya indicate a potential catch rate of up to 59.8 kg ha     super(-1) hr super(-1). Lates niloticus dominated the catches in the     lower reaches (37.5%), while catches in the upper reaches were     dominated by Labeo victorianus, Schilbe mystus and Barbus altianalis.     L. victorianus contributed up to 84.8% of the catch in the upper     reaches by weight. Catches in the floodplain were dominated by     Oreochromis niloticus, O. variabilis and Clarias gariepinus, which     contributed more than 50% by weight. The size frequency distribution     of L. niloticus suggests that larger specimens occur in the river as     compared to the floodplain.
