Length–weight relationships for seven Gobiid fish species in the southeastern Caspian Sea basin, Iran

Population structure of Gobiidae in a tropical urban estuary

“…Ctenogobius boleosoma and E. lyricus demonstrated significant variations in the weightlength relationship and negative allometric growth. These same findings have been described in other population studies involving the family Gobiidae (Wyanski & Targett, 1985;Abdoli et al, 2009). Variations in the weight-length relationship in fishes may be influenced by habitat, sexual maturity, metamorphosis, and feeding (Ilhan et al, 2012;Lizama & Ambrósio, 1999).…”

Length-weight relationship of two fish species from Cholvar River, western Iran: Mastacembelus mastacembelus (Banks & Solander, 1794) and Glyptothorax silviae Coad, 1981

“…Information on length–weight relationships of Iranian fish fauna is limited to some reports on commercially important species (Hosseini, : Naddafi et al., : Shokri et al., : Esmaeili, ; Esmaeili and Ebrahimi, : Abdoli et al., : Heydarnejad, 2009; Alavi‐Yeganeh et al., : Raeisi et al., ; Bibak et al., ). Two species of M. mastacembelus and G. silviae are native to the Cholvar River, Iran.…”

Length-weight relationships for nine nemacheilian loaches (Teleostei: Nemacheilidae) from Iran

“…However, there is little information on their general biology (including length‐weight relationships) in Iran (Tabiee and Abdoli, 2005; Esmaeili and Ebrahimi, 2006; Heydarnejad, 2009). Most LWR parameters are estimated because of their major importance in fishery assessments (Naddafi et al., 2002; Cubedo et al., 2006; Hossain et al., 2006; Soomro et al., 2007; Abdoli et al., 2009; Ak et al., 2009). The present study estimates parameters of the LWR for nine species of the family Nemacheilidae inhabiting the rivers of western and southeastern Iran.…”
