| Abstract: | Length-Weight relationship (LWRs) were estimated for four fish species occurring in the Ibicuí River drainage basin, southern Brazil. Samples were captured monthly during the spring and summer seasons (October 2018 to March 2019). The fish were caught with gillnets of different meshes (15, 20, 25, 30, 40 mm between adjacent nodes) and a trawl net (5 mm mesh between adjacent nodes) Eighteen excursions were realized in three sites, with a length of approximately 100 km, in third-order flux, all distributed in sub-basin Ibicuí River. The captured tools were installed at the end of the day (6 p.m.) and removed around 6 a.m. the next day. The present study provides the length-weight relationship for four species (Astyanax dissensos, Galeocharax humeralis, Hypostomus roseopunctatus e Hypostomus uruguayensis). |
