Description The present study estimates the length-weight relationships of six
deep-sea finfishes belonging to six families and four different orders.
Of the six species studied, first-time information is provided for three
species: Polyipnus indicus, Antigonia indica and Champsodon vorax.
The samples were collected from the south-eastern Arabian Sea by
deep-sea trawlers landing at Sakthikulangara Fisheries Harbour,
Kollam, Kerala, India. The b value ranged from 2.14 to 3.46, and r2
values ranged from 0.903 to 0.968. Four species (Bathyclupea
hoskynii, Synagrops japonicus, C. vorax and P. indicus) exhibited
negative allometric growth, and two species (Eridacnis radcliffei and
A. indica) exhibited positive allometric growth. The b values
obtained from the present study were compared with the Bayesian
model in Fish Base. Relative condition factor estimates showed lower
ranges for E. radcliffe and S. japonicus, indicating that some
individuals had a suboptimal status of K>1.
