Author(s): Mrinal Kumar Das and Ranjana Bhaskar
Abstract: Length-weight relationships for five finfish fish species belonging to five different families were estimated collected from Chennai coast, Tamil Nadu, India.The estimated allometric parameter ‘b’
values ranged from 2.78 (
Nemipterus randalli Russel, 1986) to 3.32 (
Trachinocephalus myops (Forster, 1801) which is within the normal range and r
2 values ranged from 0.952 (
Nemipterus randalli) to 0.980 (
Trachinocephalus myops). All the LWRs were highly significant, with
p < .005. There were no prior LWRs data in FishBase from India regarding three of these species (
Stolephorus indicus, Trachinocephalus myops and
Upeneus tragula).
