| Abstract: | This study provides information on length‐weight relationships for 14 marine fish species. Specimens were collected between 2006 and 2010 from the Uruguayan coastal zone (depth < 15 m) in Punta del Diablo, Rocha during a biodiversity monitoring program. This study represents the first reference on length‐weight relationships for two endangered Rajidae species and confirms the presence of the Stellifer rastrifer, whose distribution range has been extended southwards recently. |
