LENGTH WEIGHT AND LENGTH LENGTH RELATIONSHIPS OF SIX PONYFISH SPECIES FROM THE PERSIAN GULF

Length-weight relationship (LWR) and length-length relationship (LLR) were estimated for six species of ponyfishes captured in the Persian Gulf, Iran. The LWRs indicated isometric growth in ornate ponyfish (Equulites lineolatus), common ponyfish (Leiognathus equulus) and deep pugnose ponyfish (Secut...

Summary:Length-weight relationship (LWR) and length-length relationship (LLR) were estimated for six species of ponyfishes captured in the Persian Gulf, Iran. The LWRs indicated isometric growth in ornate ponyfish (Equulites lineolatus), common ponyfish (Leiognathus equulus) and deep pugnose ponyfish (Secutor ruconius) species, positive allometric growth in striped ponyfish (Aurigequula fasciata) and negative allometric growth in decorated ponyfish (Nuchequula gerreoides) and orangefin ponyfish (Photopectoralis bindus). LWR and LLR parameters for one of the species (E. lineolatus) are given for the first time. The relationships between TL, FL and SL were all linear and highly correlated (for all cases: r2 > 0.97)Original Abstract: Duzinsko-maseni odnos (LWR) i odnos duzina-duzina (LLR) procijenjene su na sest vrsta riba ulovljenih u Perzijskom zaljevu, Iran. Duzinsko-masenim odnosom ustanovljen je izometrijski rast kod vrsta Equulites lineolatus, Leiognathus equulus i Secutor ruconius, pozitivni alometrijski rast kod Aurigequula fasciata i negativan alometrijski rast kod Nuchequula gerreoides i Photopectoralis bindus. LWR i LLR parametri vrste E. lineolatus prikazani su po prvi put. Odnosi izmedju TL, FL i SL su linearni i visoko korelirani (za sve slucajeve: r2> 0,97).
