Abstract

<abstract abstract-type="main" id="jai12490-abs-0001"> <title>Summary</title> <p>Length–weight relationships (LWR) were calculated for 18 species representing 11 families of fishes. A total of 958 fish specimens from the southwestern Terminos Lagoon, Campeche (Mexico), several of which had none or few LWRs available in FishBase, were sampled (except December) using a shrimp otter trawl net from September 2003 to August 2004. Sample sizes ranged from seven <italic>Mugil curema</italic> and <italic>Archosargus probatocephalus</italic> individuals to 250 <italic>Eugerres plumieri</italic>.</p> </abstract>
