Date Issued 1986 (iso8601)
Abstract Length-weight relationships of Panulirus homarus caught from the Kanniyakumari
coast was found to be W = 0.000566 L 2 . 5°. The relationship between tail length
and total length was also investigated and compared with that of Panulirus polyphagus.
Same relationship did not hold good for the two sexes as in the case of P. polyphagus.
For a given tail length, the head length, the total length and the weight appear to be
relatively larger for females of small sizes of P. homarus
