The generalized length-length relationships of Chanda nama ((Hamilton, 1822) belongs to Ambassidae were studied separately for a period of a calendar year collected from the Old Brahmaputra River, Mymensingh, Bangladesh for male, female and combined populations. A total of 1170 specimens were examined where 599 were male and 571 were female. The standard length, fork length and total length of male ranged from 19 to 79 mm, from 23 to 90 mm, and 28 to 100 mm respectively. The standard length, fork length and total length of female were found from 15 to 81 mm, 24 to 89 mm, and from 29 to 100 mm respectively. The generalized relationships of standard length and fork length, fork length and total length, and standard length and total length of male, female and combined populations were FL = 1.08 SL+1.41, TL = 1.11 FL + 1.54 and TL = 1.20 SL+2.81; FL = 1.09 SL+1.23, TL = 1.12 FL+1.04 and TL = 1.22 SL+2.22; and FL = 1.09 SL+1.20, TL = 1.11 FL+1.27 and TL = 1.22 SL+2.38 respectively. The coefficient of determination (R2) revealed high values in all regression analyses. In length–length relationships, the coefficient of determination (R2) ranged from 0.973-0.990. The present findings of this study will be helpful for a well-organized and significant exploitation and regulation of the Chanda nama fishery in the Old Brahmaputra River and surrounding ecosystems.

Abstract Morphometric and meristic characters are very important for the identification of any fish specimen. The present study aims to describe the morphometric and meristic characters of the indigenous fish Crossocheilus diplochilus (Heckel) from Dal Lake. This fish is commonly known as Kashmir latia and is called tether locally. In the present study, the material analyzed was 70 specimens ranging in size from 6.9–13 cm (TL) with a mean length of 10.8 cm and a weight range of 3.2–24.0 g with a mean weight of 10.1 g. The parameters with the highest correlations with total length were standard length and fork length at 0.983 and 0.989, respectively. Correlation analysis showed that all morphometric characters changed proportionally as total length increased. The meristic counts analyzed in the present study remained constant in fish of different sizes indicating that they are independent of body size. The study of morphometric characters is very important to determine the growth rate of these fish, which, in turn, is required to properly manage its populations.

This study exhibits relationships between length-weight and length-length for 21 fish species caught in Izmir Bay. Coefficients a and b for the length-weight relationships (LWRs) and length-length relationships (LLRs) were calculated with W=aLb formulae and as equations of TL=a+bFL and TL=a+bSL respectively. Equations of length-length for converting standard length and fork length into total length and vice versa were proven linear. The involved relationships were significantly interrelated (R2>0.942). Values b in the LWRs varied from 2.21 to 3.96 (mean ± SE: 3.15 ± 0.08). The student’s t-test showed that 87.9% of values b were significantly different from 3.

SUMMARY Biometric relationships are important to illustrate the growth of animals. When adjusted using nonlinear models, these relationships can provide important information that contributes to the improvement of breeding techniques. In this study, morphometric data as a function of weight obtained in four experiments involving bullfrog tadpoles were adjusted using Gompertz, Logistic, Von Bertalanffy and Brody nonlinear models and the best-fit model was determined. After fitting the parameters to the different models in each experiment, the models were compared based on confidence intervals (α = 0.05). The following criteria were used for selection of the best model: biological interpretation, residual mean square, coefficient of determination, graphic analysis, and number of iterations. Standard and total length data as a function of tadpole weight converged in the four models. The Logistic and Gompertz models had no biological interpretation for some datasets. The Brody model provided the lowest residual mean square and number of iterations for the variables studied in all experiments. The Brody relative growth rate (K) was lower for total length when compared to standard length, indicating a greater initial growth in standard length. The Brody model was the best to describe the growth in standard and total length of bullfrog tadpoles as a function of weight.

In the present study about 277 specimens of Lethrinus nebulosus were used to determine some biological parameters which are needed in stock assessment in the region of Arabian Gulf on the Saudi Arabian coasts. The period of spawning was estimated using maturity indexes to April, Mai and June. This species is gonochoric, nevertheless some cases of hermaphrodism are noted. The length relationships were determined showing a correlation between total length and standard length, and between total length and fork length. The weight- length relationship is allometric minorante. The model of Von Bertalanffy was estimated for the studied species and it is as follows:  Lt = 600 *(1-exp (-0.135*(t+1.69)) for both sexes, Lt = 600 (1-exp (-0.166*(t+0.746)) for females and Lt = 555 *(1-exp (-0.153*(t+1.62)) for males.

Abstract The aim of the current study was to determine the length-weight relationship (LWR) and length-length relationship (LLR) with condition factor (K) values for Oxynoemacheilus angorae from the Perşembe Plateau meandering streams in Ordu, Turkey. A total of 65 fish specimens, which were caught with electrofishing gear, were examined. Fish standard length (SL), fork length (FL), total length (TL), and body weight (W) were determined. There were no statistical differences between the measurements of male and female O. angorae specimens; therefore, the female and male specimens were evaluated together in the current study. The LWR equation and determination coefficient of O. angorae were W = 0.014 TL2.7359 (r2 = 0.9659). The 95% confidence interval of the b value for the O. angorae specimens from the Perşembe Plateau meandering streams was 2.7261 to 2.7435. In the present study, it was determined that O. angorae specimens showed negative allometric growth. Calculations of O. angorae TL-SL, TL-FL, and FL-SL relationship equations and determination coefficients were as follows: TL = 0.2091+1.1646 SL, (r2 = 0.986); TL = 0.1341+1.0301 FL (r2 = 0.9914); and FL = 0.0998+1.1261 SL, (r2 = 0.9868), respectively. A new maximum total length was recorded for O. angorae in this study. The average condition factor value of O. angorae was 0.9954. This value could have indicated that this species was encountering some problems in this habitat. The O. angorae parameters determined were the first data reported for the Perşembe Plateau meandering streams in Ordu, Turkey (Middle Black Sea Region).
