Description 597-604
Fifteen fish species from the family Lutjanidae were recorded from the Gopalpur fish landing centre, which includes one
new record (Lutjanus xanthopinnis Iwatsuki, Tanaka & Allen, 2015) from the Southern Odisha, central east coast of India.
This study reports length weight relationship for 11 lutjanid species and for Lutjanus guilcheri Fourmanoir, 1959, the LWR
was recorded for the first time from the Indian coast. The ‘b’ value ranges between 2.7 to 3.1. However, the seasonal
analysis shows a lower ‘b’ value for L. johnii during pre-monsoon (2.126) and monsoon (2.186), which is probably due to
the high number of juveniles in the sample. The mean value of condition factor (K) ranged between 1.36 and 1.84. The
comparative analysis of the ‘b’ values of the studied species from different regions of the east coast of India suggests that
the overall environmental parameters in the western Bay of Bengal are favourable for their growth.
