The target production is from 500 to 1000 kg/ha/year. ThroughState Government initiative two fresh water prawn (Macrobrachium rosenbergii) and onecrab hatchery are running in pilot scale.15. The speciality of Digha-Sankarpur coast is the occurrence of two endangered speciesviz Lepidochelys olivacea the marine turtle and the Carcinoscorepius rotundicauda thevaluable medicinal invertebrate the “Horse shoes”. Not much is known about their habitatand other details.C.1.2 Sagar-Sundarban Coastal areasGeneral Characteristics16. Sundarban with an area of about 10200 square kilometer of mangrove forest extendsover two countries India (4,267 sq.km.) and Bangladesh (6,000 sq.km.). Out of this area of4,267 sq. km., about 2,300 sq.km. is under forest canopy. An additional 5,400 sq.km. nonforest(reclaimed forest) human habited area along the north and north<strong>west</strong>ern fringe ofmangrove forest within the Indian territory is also known as Sundarban. The Dampier-Hodges line has been accepted as the administrative landward boundary of Sundarban. Thetotal area of Sundarban in India is therefore about 9600 sq.km. which forms the SundarbanBiosphere Reserve (SBR). SBR was notified under the administrative control of Departmentof Forests, Government of West Bengal in 1989 and was ultimately constituted as National13
14Biosphere Reserve by UNESCO in 2001. The eastern part of the mangrove forest (about2,585 sq.km.) has been declared as Sundarban Tiger Reserve (STR) area. A large part of theSTR area (1,330 sq. km.) has been further declared as a National Park (known as Core area)by the Ministry of Environment and Forests, Government of India. Also three islands withinthe mangrove forests namely Sajnekhali, Lothian and Halliday have also been declared asWildlife Sanctuaries by MOEF. Considering the overall ecological interest of forests ofSundarban, it has been declared as a World Heritage Site by IUCN.Flora17. The dominant flora of Sundarban is the mangrove. Altogether thirty true mangrovespecies, thirty mangrove associated plant species (back mangal) and thirty non-mangrovehalophytic plant species have so far been identified from Sundarban. There are altogetherfifty species of phytoplankton constituted by forty species of diatoms, eight species ofdianoflagellates and one species of chlorophyceae and cyanophycaea. Sixteen types ofzooplankton have so far recorded from Sundarban. About eighty species of algae adapted tosalinity value from 15 to 35 ppt have been recorded from Sundarban. A succession of plantgrowth depending on the relative height of the land and consequent time of inundation bytidal water could be seen. In the lower intertidal mud flats, the halophytic grass is the pioneerspecies that rapidly colonises the newly silted up substrate. Floating seeds and seedlings ofmangrove plants are arrested in this grass land and are anchored and germinate there. Theseseedling plants ultimately develop into dense mangrove forests of Avicennia, Sonneratia,Rhizophora, Ceriops and Bruguiera on these intertidal landforms. Ceriops, Phoenix,Xylocarpeus and Nypa grow on the upper intertidal levels to form ridge forests.Fauna18.
