| Abstract: | Length–weight relationships (W = a TLb) were estimated for wild and farmed Tor putitora obtained from River Korang, Islamabad and Attock District, Pakistan, respectively. The results indicate, W = 0.0171 TL2.85 for wild and W = 0.1000 TL2.33 for farmed. Total length ranged from 18.0 to 40.2 cm for male and 31.6 to 37.0 cm for female wild Tor putitora, indicating that the fish are now much smaller. The first reference of length–weight relationships for Tor putitora is provided. |
