The growth pattern and size of oilfish, Ruvettus pretiosus landed in the Southwestern Coast, Surigao del Norte, Philippines were studied from February to April 2019. A total of 157 samples were recorded with a mean total length and weight of 77.79±0.93 cm and 5344±2296 g, respectively. The total length of the samples ranged from 53.3 to 107.3 cm. The class interval of 70-74.9 cm obtained the highest frequency of 28 individuals. The relationship between length and weight of the oilfish resulted to a negative allometric growth (b = 2.8162; r = 0.9674) with an established equation of Log W = Log 0.0239 + 2.8162 Log L. This study concludes that there was a decrease in size composition of the oilfish species in the study area.

LENGTH-WEIGHT RELATIONSHIPS AND CONDITION FACTORS OF THE THREE DOMINANT SPECIES OF MARINE FISHES CAUGHT BY TRADITIONAL BEACH TRAWL IN ULELHEE BAY, BANDA ACEH CITY, INDONESIA How to Cite2017 •
The objective of the present study was to examine the length-weight relationships and condition factors of snapper Lutjanus russellii, ponyfish Aurigequula fasciata and white-spotted spinefoot Siganus canaliculatus harvested from Ulelhee Bay, Banda Aceh City, Indonesia. These species are the predominant fishes caught by traditional beach trawl in Ulelhee Bay, Banda Aceh City, Indonesia. The sampling was conducted for three months from April to June 2015 at one-week interval. A total of 900 fish samples (300 individuals for each species) were measured for the total length and body weight. The length-weight relationships were calculated using Linear Allometric Model (LAM), while the relative weights (Wr) and Fulton's condition (K) factors were calculated to assess the condition of the fish samples. The results showed that the b value of 3.04 in snapper indicates isometric growth pattern, while ponyfish and white-spotted spinefoot fish had the b values of 1.41 and 1.75, respectively, and these species display an allometric growth pattern. The average Fulton's condition factor (K) of snapper was 3.01 for male and 2.49 for female; female ponyfish has the K value of 2.92 and 2.92 for male. In addition, the average K value of white-spotted spinefoot was 2.61 and 2.59 for female and male, respectively. The relative weight condition factor ranges from 58.73 to 166.09 for snapper, from 70.55 to 129.65 for ponyfish, and from 71.63 to 133.53 for white-spotted spinefoot. In general, the relative weight condition factors tendedto be 100. It is concluded that snapper has isometric growth pattern, while ponyfish and white-spotted spinefoot display the negative allometric growth pattern. The condition factors are in excellent condition and indicate a balance of prey and predator.

This study was done in Belgium (North Sea, Middelkerre-Oostende) as part of excursion in 2013. The objective was to compare the fishes' body weight (W), length (L), biomass and total catch of the two gears (otter and beam trawl) used to collect the fishes. The relationship between total length (L) in cm and total weight (W) in kg for all fish species was expressed by the equation W = aL b , a (intercept) and b (slope) are species specific constant. Two tailed t-test and Mann Whitney U-test were used to compare the length frequency distribution (LFD) between two gears within species. More than 10 fish species were collected from each fishing gear; nevertheless, 8 common species from every gear were used for this analysis. The biomass, abundance, LFD and length weight relationship (LWR) varied among species and between gears. The main species in terms of biomass were L. limanda and P.platesa, which together accounted for 81% and 89% of the total biomass in otter and beam trawl respectively. S. spratus, L. dupurator and L. limanda in otter trawl were the main species in terms of abundance accounting together for 54%. LWR was positively correlated for all eight species in both gears. S. sprattus, L. limanda, S. solea, O. eperlanus, Gobiidae spp, C. crangon and L. depurator showed no significant difference in LFD between gears within species (p>0.05) and P. platessa showed a significant difference in LFD between gears (p<0.05). Introduction It is known that the length and weight data are essential as well as useful standard information of fish sampling programs. These kinds of data are important for several studies, for instance they can be used to estimate growth rates, age structure and other aspects of fish population dynamics [1, 2]. Study of the size structure (length frequency) of fish species tells many about ecological and life-history qualities such as the water body health, stock conditions and breeding period of the fish [3]. The size structure of a fish population at any point in time can be considered a 'snapshot' that reflects the interactions of the dynamic rates of recruitment, growth and mortality. Additionally, Madrid-Vela et al., [4] stated that the analysis of the structure of the fish community is important for the understanding of the regional processes and the functioning of the ecosystem. Fishery researchers have been assessing the energetic condition of fishes based on weight at a given length relative to body size [5]. Fishes are affected by environmental factors that limit their biomass and total length, these factors includes predation, pollution and nutrients competition [6]. The relationship between length and weight differs among fish species based to their body shape and within a species according to the condition of individual fish (www.fishbase.org). This paper presents information on the length frequency distribution (LFD) and weight-length relationship (LWR), abundance (catch per unit effort, CPUE) and biomass of fish species trawled from North Sea during excursion, on 30/4/l 2013 and this paper is a side result of that work. As stated before, these parameters are useful for estimating growth rates, reproduction, healthiness, age structure and other aspects of fish population

Biological aspects of Longfin Mojarra (Pentaprion longimanus, Cantor 1849) in north coast of Central Java, Indonesia2018 •
Abstract. Oktaviani D, Faizah R, Nugroho D. 2018. Biological aspects of Longfin Mojarra (Pentaprion longimanus, Cantor 1849) in north coast of Central Java, Indonesia. Biodiversitas 19: 683-689. Longfin Mojarra (Pentaprion longimanus) locally named as rengganis, is a demersal fish species that is commonly caught in Scottish seine fisheries off the north coast of Java. The fisheries are in heavily harvest level since decades. The aim of this study was to observe the biological aspects of this species. Observations were made between August 2014-July 2015 from Tegal fishing port, western part of north coast central Java. General life-history parameters were measured, i.e., monthly length frequency for 1876 fishes, among them 573 specimens were observed for length-weight relationship, including 541 specimens for sex ratio and maturity stages. Fulton index, Gonadosomatic index, sex ratio and estimated length at first mature were analyzed. The result showed fish size ranged between 7.4 to 15.3 cmFL with the average length of 11.2+1.75 cmFL. We found that length-weight relationship tends to be isometric which statistically the body growth coefficient (b) is equal to 3 (tc = 0.53 < tab; p<0.05) . Monthly Fulton indexes ranged between 1.05-2.87 with an average of 1.90 + 0.17. Sex ratio during observation was not significantly different (p<0.05) from the expected ratio of 1: 1. Mature females occurred year-round with the highest percentage observed from January to April 2015. The estimated length at first maturity was 13.04 cm FL. These biological parameters will be used to support the population study of the future demersal fish species to improve conservation and management measures.

Length-weight relationships of marine fishes caught by Danish seine in Lingayen gulf2020 •
The length-weight relationship were analysed for each marine fishes caught by Danish Seine, using specimens collected from the Magsaysay Market, Dagupan City, Pangasinan. Two Sampling sites were selected, namely, Sector I (western Coast) and Sector III (eastern Coast). Two commercial fishing vessels were utilized in the study; one each in Sector I and Sector III. Sampling was done every 15 days for a period of two months. The length-weight relationship, determined by the regression analysis were evaluated for each major fishes. In Sector I, the length and weight relationship for Decapterus macrosoma, Sphyraena barracuda, Rastrelliger kanagurta, Decapterus kurroides and Nemipterus bathybius was growing in a negative allometric way except of the Rastrelliger kanagurta that grows in positive allometric way. In Sector III species of Saurida tumbil, Rastrelliger brachysoma, Trichiurus lepturus, Nemipterus bathybius and Sphyraena barracuda) Sector III grows in negative allometric way. In addition, most of the species shows a strong positive correlation this indicates that as the length increases, weight also increases. Introduction The size-weight relationship has been used in fishery analyses for several purposes: to convert one variable to another, to estimate the expected weight for a certain size of fishes [1]. Fish can attain either isometric growth, negative allometric growth or positive allometric growth. Isometric growth is associated with no change of body shape as an organism grows. Negative allometric growth implies the fish becomes more slender as it increase in weight while positive allometric growth implies relatively stouter or deeper-bodied as it increases in length [2]. The LWR of fishes is useful in assessing the relative well-being of the fish population. It is important in estimating the standing stock biomass, and comparing the ontogeny of fish population from different regions [3]. Length-weight relationship parameters are often used as an indicator of fatness and general well-being or of gonad development of fish and are useful for between region comparisons of life histories of a specific species [4, 5]. Lingayen Gulf is one of the major fishing grounds of the Philippines located in the northwestern part of Luzon. It lies within 16 o 00' N and 16 o 40' N latitudes and 119 o 55' E and 120 o 25' E longitudes. It is bounded on the west and south of Pangasinan province and northeast by La Union province. The gulf covers a total area of 2,085 km 2 with a 160 km coastline from Cape Bolinao to Poro Point and generally shallow with depths of less than 90 m. [6]. The gulf is one of the primary sources of livelihood of the people particularly those living in the coastal areas. Despite the usefulness of length-weight relationship in fisheries science and the importance of the Lingayen Gulf to the livelihood of the people, information about the length-weight relationships and condition factors of major fish species in Sector I and III are non-existent. The paucity of these information propelled this study, which to also provide useful information for better management of the gulf.
