Abstract

At present, when, as a result of human activities, the relic valuable species of sturgeons – Aral bastard sturgeon, Acipenser nudiventris Lovetsky, 1828 in its natural habitat has died out, and in the acclimatization reservoir is on the verge of extinction, the only effective measure to restore its abundance and stocks can only be its artificial reproduction.
