Abstract

Present study describes the length-weight relationships of a freshwater catfish Mystus vittatus (Bloch). Lengths of fishes were varied from 4.9 to 12.2 cm. The correlation coefficient of female (r²=0.937) is found to be higher when compared to that of male. The value of r²was found to be 0.728 to 0.921 in male and 0.783 to 0.937 in female. The equation of Linear Regression were y = 2.664x -13.50 r² = 0.835 for male and y = 3.269x -18.48 r² = 0.843 for female catfish Mystus vittatus (Bloch). The value of correlation coefficient (r²) was not less than 0.728.
