Length–weight relations for 14 fish species (Actinopterygii) from the coastal waters off Gwangyang Bay, South Korea

Length–weight relations were estimated for 14 fish species sampled from the coastal waters off the Gwangyang Bay in South Korea. The following species were studied: Okamejei kenojei (Müller et Henle, 1841); Muraenesox cinereus (Forsskål, 1775); Thryssa adelae (Rutter, 1897); Thryssa...

Description
Summary:Length–weight relations were estimated for 14 fish species sampled from the coastal waters off the Gwangyang Bay in South Korea. The following species were studied: Okamejei kenojei (Müller et Henle, 1841); Muraenesox cinereus (Forsskål, 1775); Thryssa adelae (Rutter, 1897); Thryssa kammalensis (Bleeker, 1849); Tribolodon hakonensis (Günther, 1877); Inimicus japonicus (Cuvier, 1829); Chelidonichthys spinosus (McClelland, 1844); Jaydia lineata (Temminck et Schlegel, 1842); Sillago japonica Temminck et Schlegel, 1843; Pholis nebulosa (Temminck et Schlegel, 1845); Favonigobius gymnauchen (Bleeker, 1860); Pampus echinogaster (Basilewsky, 1855); Cynoglossus joyneri Günther, 1878; Takifugu niphobles (Jordan et Snyder, 1901).The length–weight relation of Thryssa adelae (Rutter, 1897), (Engraulidae) has not been previously reported. The new maximum total length of Thryssa kammalensis (18.0 cm) is now provided. The values of coefficient a ranged from 0.0007 to 0.0218, and the values of exponent b ranged from 2.82 to 3.52.
