Bangladesh",doi:"10.5772/intechopen.102022",slug:"perspective-chapter-status-of-dolphin-in-the-maritime-area-of-bangladesh",body:'Among the cetacean, the dolphin is the common name of aquatic mammals. Over the last decades, aquatic mammal conservation is a global concern due to human anthropogenic activities and rapidly declining the biodiversity. Losses of aquatic mammals or biodiversity directly affect on ecosystem locally or internationally that concerned by the Convention of Biological Diversity (CBD) in 1992. Marine mammal conservation is continuing process which cannot ever be well-thought-out completely in south Asia. In the Bay of Bengal, Swatch of No-ground has been established as Marine Protected Area (MPA) for biological species. As a big delta basin Ganges, Brahmaputra, and Meghna river systems are present along with the coastal regions in Bangladesh. IUCN Bangladesh [1] reported 10 cetacean species are present in the aquatic ecosystem of Bangladesh include the Ganges river dolphin. All marine dolphins are included in the Family Delphinidae. The very little study occurred on the dolphins in the maritime area of Bangladesh, except some reports of species events [2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8]. According to WCS [9] about 1738 km2 areas are considered as a marine protected area (MPA) for marine mammal species, and MPA is constructed at the Northwest and Southeast geographic area of Bangladesh that is recognized with the Indian Ocean in Figure 1.
Map of dolphin occurrence in the maritime area, black color line box indicated site (WCS, 2015).
However, some author little studies completed on dolphins [7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12] but the status of dolphin investigation is not sufficient in the maritime area of Bangladesh due to lack of funds, strategic plan, and awareness. Although, False Killer whale, Bryde’s whale, and Sperm whales are found in the marine water but different types of dolphins are survived in maritime areas of Bangladesh.
The species conservation effort should be a concern with ecological, behavioral, population, and species diversity. Among the mammal Irrawaddy dolphin, Indo-Pacific Humpback dolphin, Bottlenose dolphin, Spotted dolphin, Spinner dolphin, and Rough-toothed dolphin are present in the maritime area of Bangladesh in Figure 2. Only Ganges river dolphins survive in the freshwater, coastal water, and the mouth of the Ganges at Sundarban area.
Different types of dolphin occurred in the maritime area of Bangladesh. (1) Irrawaddy dolphin, (2) Indo-Pacific Humpback dolphin, (3) Indo-Pacific Bottlenose dolphin, (4) Spotted dolphin, (5) Spinner dolphin, and (6) Ganges river dolphin.
This dolphin name comes from the Irrawaddy River, Myanmar and endangered species among all cetacean species in the world. Its scientific name is
Number of species sighted in the maritime water of Bangladesh.
The Indo-Pacific humpback dolphin has been recorded in the marine water of Bangladesh and also sighted near the eastern India region [18]. This species scientific name is
This mammal scientific name is
The spotted dolphin is the most dominant animal in the cetacean groups in tropical area. Generally, Pantropical spotted dolphins occurred in the marine protected areas of the Bay of Bengal. This dolphin’s scientific name is
The Spinner dolphin’s scientific name is

Mortality of dolphins in fishing nets and the highest level of water pollution through oil, plastic, and industrial waste are the extreme threats. Illegal fishing such as poisoning or electro fishing and large ship boat, vessel strikes, overfishing, sand and resources mining are also threat for dolphins. In Bangladeshi water, most of the dolphin species death occurs by fishing net specially gill net. Dolphin killing and hunting was extensive in several countries that also threat for the environment [2, 30, 31]. UNDP Bangladesh [16] reported that 130 dolphins were killed from 2007 to 2016 in the waters of Bangladesh which most of the species’ death by fishing nets and propellers of ships. GoB [32] also reported a total of 52 dolphins were lost by gillnets in the Sundarban area. Dolphin killing occurred due to collecting body parts has required in fisheries that are used as dolphin oil [33]. Although, several organizations are trying to conserve dolphins but it’s not enough, such as SharkLab, United Nations Development Program (UNDP), the Global Environment Facility (GEF), the Forest Department, IUCN Bangladesh, and World Conservation Society (WCS). Dolphin conservation is highly important for other aquatic species in the ecosystem as well as the better health regulator of water. Bangladesh Government has been attentive for the marine protected area (MPA) to conserve cetaceans whereas most of the dolphin sightings occurred in the water. We should concern about bycatch through fishing gear, awareness, and biological data monitoring to conserve dolphins as well as their habitat. Six sanctuaries have been recognized as conservation areas by the Government of Bangladesh for marine mammal and other species. The Swatch of no-Ground is also known as a special conservation area for biological resources.
The present condition does not well promise for the future plan of the dolphins. The different key programs should consider improving dolphin conservation. Such as taxonomy study through morphologically and genetically, impact and risk assessment, habitat management assessment, ocean traffic plan, population size and movement, ecology, water quality, environmental hazards and threat, etc. Also season wise fisheries interaction should high attention because dolphin mortality rate increases due to fishing and human anthropogenic activities. Monitoring programs of dolphins, their primary habitat, size, structure, and population can guide or lead delta plan, conservation plan, and climate movement.
We would like to express thank all members who contributed to the dolphin research. Also, thanks to Dr. Mohammad Saiful Islam, chairman, Department of Zoology, JnU for his special discussion on marine mammals. In specific, we would like to express our heartfelt gratitude to Rafi, Nur Alam, Kisor Kumar Sarkar, and Hasan Al Razi. Special thanks to Ifat Jahan for picture editing and collection. We also thank an unsigned assessor for useful notes on a former draft.

Fungal infectious illness prevalence and prognosis are determined by the exposure between fungi and host, host immunological state, fungal virulence, and early and accurate diagnosis and treatment. \r\nPatients with both congenital and acquired immunodeficiency are more likely to be infected with opportunistic mycosis. Fungal infectious disease outbreaks are common during the post- disaster rebuilding era, which is characterised by high population density, migration, and poor health and medical conditions.\r\nSystemic or local fungal infection is mainly associated with the fungi directly inhaled or inoculated in the environment during the disaster. The most common fungal infection pathways are human to human (anthropophilic), animal to human (zoophilic), and environment to human (soilophile). Diseases are common as a result of widespread exposure to pathogenic fungus dispersed into the environment. \r\nFungi that are both common and emerging are intertwined. In Southeast Asia, for example, Talaromyces marneffei is an important pathogenic thermally dimorphic fungus that causes systemic mycosis. Widespread fungal infections with complicated and variable clinical manifestations, such as Candida auris infection resistant to several antifungal medicines, Covid-19 associated with Trichoderma, and terbinafine resistant dermatophytosis in India, are among the most serious disorders. \r\nInappropriate local or systemic use of glucocorticoids, as well as their immunosuppressive effects, may lead to changes in fungal infection spectrum and clinical characteristics. Hematogenous candidiasis is a worrisome issue that affects people all over the world, particularly ICU patients. CARD9 deficiency and fungal infection have been major issues in recent years. Invasive aspergillosis is associated with a significant death rate. Special attention should be given to endemic fungal infections, identification of important clinical fungal infections advanced in yeasts, filamentous fungal infections, skin mycobiome and fungal genomes, and immunity to fungal infections.\r\nIn addition, endemic fungal diseases or uncommon fungal infections caused by Mucor irregularis, dermatophytosis, Malassezia, cryptococcosis, chromoblastomycosis, coccidiosis, blastomycosis, histoplasmosis, sporotrichosis, and other fungi, should be monitored. \r\nThis topic includes the research progress on the etiology and pathogenesis of fungal infections, new methods of isolation and identification, rapid detection, drug sensitivity testing, new antifungal drugs, schemes and case series reports. It will provide significant opportunities and support for scientists, clinical doctors, mycologists, antifungal drug researchers, public health practitioners, and epidemiologists from all over the world to share new research, ideas and solutions to promote the development and progress of medical mycology.",coverUrl:"https://cdn.intechopen.com/series_topics/covers/4.jpg",hasOnlineFirst:!0,hasPublishedBooks:!1,annualVolume:11400,editor:{id:"174134",title:"Dr.",name:"Yuping",middleName:null,surname:"Ran",slug:"yuping-ran",fullName:"Yuping Ran",profilePictureURL:"https://s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/intech-files/0030O00002bS9d6QAC/Profile_Picture_1630330675373",biography:"Dr. Yuping Ran, Professor, Department of Dermatology, West China Hospital, Sichuan University, Chengdu, China.
