Weight-length relationships for 40 fish species in the eastern Adriatic (Croatian waters)

Weight-length regressions are presented for 40 fish species caught during the period 1 January 1991-1 January 1995 in the eastern Adriatic (Croatian waters). Samples were collected with beach seine, gill and trammel nets, The values of the exponent b in the weight-length relationship W = aL(b) ranged from 2.607-3.512 and the median value was 3.038, whereas 50% of the values ranged between 2.939 and 3.196. The application of these regressions should be limited to the observed length ranges.
