Conservation effects of Prvić island special reserve (NE Adriatic Sea) on littoral fish communities
Prvić Island was declared a special reserve in 1972 primarily owing to the rare botanical and ornithological features. However, for the most part (79%) the reserve extends to the surrounding marine area for which there are no specific fishing regulations. Effectiveness of reserve in conservation of littoral ichthyofauna was studied by comparing trammel net catches and – underwater visual census observations between the sites within and outside the reserve as there were no historical data for comparison. Both research methods showed no significant protection effects as species richness, abundance, biomass, com-position and structure of ichthyocommunities are similar in Prvić Island reserve and the surrounding unprotected areas. The whole research area, regardless of protection, is char-acterized by marked resource depletion and, especially, species of high commerical value are rarely seen or caught with populations dominated by small, immature individuals. Currently the reserve provides no benefits and since the allowed types of fishing gears and intensity of fishing cannot contribute to the conservation and sustainable use of coastal fishery resources, the recommendation is to limit the fishing effort by adopting additional measures of fishing regulation.
