Key wOI-ds: Review of length-weight relationship, penaeid shrimps, Egypt.
ABSTRACT
The parameters a and b of the length-\reight relaTionship q[ the
f01711 W= aLb have been computed jar 8 species belonging 10 -f genera
of marine penaeid shrimp obtained from the literalllre ll’hich ll’ere
raken by other trawl fishing from Egyptian Mediterranean \raTer of
Alexandria. Sue:: Gulf-Red Sea and from lakes, Sample sizes /l for
dWerent species ranged from -17 to 22613 specimens colle red from
commercial landings and research suneys.
The fit of the equations W= aLb with a and b parameters estimaTed
fro/ll regular and junctional regression (of log-transjonned H’eight
and lengrh data).
