| Popis: | The updated status of the ornamental fish trade from the Amazonas state was analyzed between the years of 2006-2015 (IBAMA database). The trade of ornamental fish from Amazonas state mainly consists of species extracted from nature. A total of 142,552,253 specimens were exported during the studied period. Sales plummeted since 2006, from 26,075,241 specimens exported then to 2,729,846 specimens in 2015 (Jan-Jul). Between 2006 and 2015, a total of US$ 23.0 million in revenue was generated from fish exports destined to 35 countries. Germany, Taiwan, USA and Japan accounted for 75.5% of the volume and 76.7% of the value exported. During this time, 375 species were exported, included Paracheirodon axelrodi, P. simulans, Hemigrammus bleheri, Otociclus affinis and O. hoppei that together represented 84.5% of exports. Thirty are not on the list of IBAMA species released for export, and six are currently on the list of endangered fauna of Brazil, being them: Hopliancistrus tricornis, Leporacanthicus joselimai, Parancistrus nudiventris, Peckoltia compta, Scobinancistrus auratus and S. pariolispos. These results are an additional tool for managers, environmentalists and decision makers to establish regulations to govern the trade. |
