摘要

Abstract

For the first time

the present study reports the life-history traits

comprising length-frequency distribution (LFD)

sex ratio (SR)

length-weight relationships (LWRs)

condition factors (CFs)

and relative growth (W R)

of Clupisoma garua in the coastal waters of Bangladesh. A total of 150 specimens ranging from 8.60 to 25.20 cm total length (TL) and 4.26 to 128.80 g body weight (BW) were collected using traditional fishing gear from August 2013 to July 2014. The overall sex ratio of males to females in the study did not differ significantly from the expected value of 1:1 (χ2 =0.96

P <0.05) but there were significant sex differences (P <0.05) in the intercepts and slopes of graphs characterizing traits in C. garua. The calculated b values for the LWRs were 2.955

2.893 and 2.927 for males

females and combined sexes

respectively

and there was negative allometric growth in all cases (b <3). The condition factors (K A

K F

K R ) and relative growth (W R ) also did not differ significantly ( P <0.05) between the sexes. This study provides a useful tool for fishery specialists to evaluate the relative condition of fish and to initiate early management strategies and regulations for the sustainable management of the remaining stocks of this species in the entire coastal region of southern Bangladesh.
