摘要

Abstract

This study records length-weight relationships (LWRs) for eleven commercially important marine catfish species of the family Ariidae (sea catfishes) and Plotosidae (eel catfishes) from the northern Arabian Sea coast of Pakistan. The specimens were sampled from December 2014 to November 2015

using bottom trawls with various mesh sizes by commercial vessels. The species were Nemapteryx caelatus

Sciades sona

Arius gagora

Batrachocephalus mino

Netuma thalassina

N. bilineata

Osteogeneiosus militaris

Plicofollis dussumieri

P. tenuispinis

Plotosus limbatus

and P. lineatus. Of the eleven species

two species A. gagora and N. bilineata were recorded for the first time and LWRs for four species A. gagora

N. bilineata

S. sona

and B. mino still have no data in the FishBase database. In addition

new maximum length for each of the three species N. bilineata

O. militaris and B. mino was also found.
