Description 266-269
Based on the
length weight data collected from New Ferry Wharf (NFW), Sasoon Docks (S.D)
& Versova landing centres, the length-weight relationship for two important
catfishes, Arius caelatus and A. tenuispinis from Mumbai waters has
been reported in the present communication. There is no significant difference
in growth between sexes for both the species, based on the ANACOVA test. Length-weight
relationship derived were W = 0.00419 * L 3.263 (R2 = 0.899) and W = 0.0306 * L 2.720
(R2 = 0.953), for A. caelatus and A. tenuispinis respectively. Growth
pattern study showed isometric growth for A.
caelatus and A. tenuispinis.
