Abstract

Sillago sihama forms about 60% of all
sillaginids commercially exploited in the gulf
of Mannar and Palk Bay landing centres of
Ramanathapuram district in Tamil Nadu
(Jayasankar 1991). Only a preliminary study
on the length-weight relationship and
condition factor of S. sihama was made by
Radhakrishnan (1957) from Mandapam area.
Later work (Jayasankar 1991) showed a
marked difference from Radhakrishnan's
results on condition factor. This study reexamins
the issue
