Abstract

Ikan kurau (Polynemus dubius) merupakan salah satu jenis ikan yang mempunyai nilai ekonomi penting di Kabupaten Indragiri Hilir, Riau. Penelitian tentang aspek biologi meliputi hubungan panjang-berat, jenis pakan dan kebiasaan makan, tingkat kematangan gonad, fekunditas dan indek kematangan gonad dilakukan pada bulan Maret, Mei, Juli dan Oktober 2011. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa hubungan panjang - berat ikan kurau mengikuti persamaan W = 0, 005 L 2,9851. Dengan nilai b = 3. Dengan demikian ikan kurau mempunyai pola pertumbuhan yang isometrik dimana terdapat keseimbangan antara pertumbuhan panjang dengan pertumbuhan berat. Ikan kurau bersifat karnivora dengan pakan utama jenis udang-udangan (krustasea) dan ikan-ikan kecil. Proses kematangan gonad terjadi secara bertahap dan ikan kurau diduga mengalami pemijahan secara tidak serentak (partial spawning). Fekunditas ikan kurau berkisar antara 5.468 – 10.256 butir dengan indeks kematangan gonad antara 7,64 % - 11,00 %. Eastern paradise fish (Polynemus dubius) is one of species of fish which have economic value in the Distric of Indragiri Hilir, Riau. Research was carried out regarding length-weight relationship, food and feeding habits, maturity stage, fecundity and gonad maturity index. Data collected in March, May, July and October 2011. The results showed that the length-weight relationship of Eastern paradise fish (Polynemus dubius) follow the equation of W = 0. 005 L 2.9851 with  value of b = 3. It means that have isometric growth pattern where there is a balance between growth in length and weight. As a carnivore fish, it has main feeding of Cruatacean and small fish. Gonad maturation process was gradual and no simultaneously (partial spawning). Mean while the fecundity in the range of 5,468 – 10,256 eggs with gonad maturity index between 7.64 % - 11.00%.
