Length-weight relationships of fish species caught in a mangrove swamp in the Gulf of California (Mexico)

Summary The relation between length (L) and weight (W) was estimated for 33 species representing 14 families of fishes from El Conchalito mangrove swamp, Gulf of California (Mexico). The parameter b estimated by nonlinear least squares of weight and length data, ranged from 1.41 to 3.68. Length ‐ we...

Zusammenfassung:Summary The relation between length (L) and weight (W) was estimated for 33 species representing 14 families of fishes from El Conchalito mangrove swamp, Gulf of California (Mexico). The parameter b estimated by nonlinear least squares of weight and length data, ranged from 1.41 to 3.68. Length ‐ weight parameters can be used for several biological or fishery purposes to enable the derivation of weight estimates from given a value of length or vice versa.
