Mahseer species, the national heritage of India are globally acclaimed sport and table fish. Some mahseer species are now assessed as ‘endangered’, making it imperative to review historical and current state of knowledge on sport-related facets, taxonomy, fisheries ecology, biology, culture and conservation efforts. The review also examines the shortfalls in knowledge base and suggests issues that need to be addressed in future. The protection and conservation measures have fallen short of expectations as the pace of implementing mega-developmental projects exceeds natural recruitment rate of mahseers and lack of facilities for assisted propagation, at larger scale.
