Abstract

The paper deals with various aspects of the biology and fishery of the silver-belly. Leiognathus jonesi James from the Palk Bay and Gulf of Mannar, in the vicinity of Mandapam. The length-weight relationship of indeterminates was found to be significantly different from that of sexed fish indicating that the rate of increase in weight of the former is much higher than that in the latter.
