Abstract

THE INITIATIVE to organise the Marine Biological Association of India was taken by Dr. S. Jones, former Director, Central Marine Fisheries Research Institute, Mandapam Camp in 1958, who was faced with the problem of finding suitable publication media for the steadily increasing number of scientific papers that were being brought out by his colleagues. It was formally inaugurated on 3rd January 1959 with head quarters at Mandapam Camp, Tamil Nadu, India.
