Length-Weight relationship, Lethrinus nebulous, Lethrinus lentjanAbstract
A detailed study was undertaken to assess the length - weight relationship of Lethrinus lentjan and Lethrinus nebulosus in Thoothukudi coast. The ‘b’ value of L.lentjan (3.027) and L.nebulosus(2.964) were analysed against ‘3’ with 248 degrees of freedom and the ‘b’ values of both the species of L.lentjan and L.nebulosus were not significant at 5% and 1% level.
