The Revival of Critically Endangered Rita rita (Ham.)in Bangladesh

The book "The Revival of Critically Endangered Rita rita (Ham.) in Bangladesh" by Khanam Taslima offers a comprehensive study of the artificial breeding of the endangered catfish Rita rita in Bangladesh. It describes various experiments on artificial reproduction using hormones such as carpPG and ovaprim. The results show that treatment with carpPG led to a high ovulation rate and the best fertilization and hatching rates. The book also documents the rearing of larvae under different stocking densities and analyzes the embryonic and larval developmental stages. This scientific work is significant for the conservation of this endangered species and provides valuable insights for aquaculture.
