Abstract

In this study, length–weight relationship
parameters of 16 out of 30 caught cartilaginous fish species examined (11
Sharks, 18 Batoids and 1 Chimaera)
from the Central Aegean Sea and presented.
Samples were caught from depths of <500 m by research vessel and a
commercial trawler, between 2008-2009. The values of the slope b in the
length-weight relationship parameters ranged from 2.79 (Torpedo marmorata) to 3.78 (Scyliorhinus stellaris), a values from 0.0002 (Scyliorhinus
stellaris
) to 0.9713 (Dasyatis pastinaca). This study has optained
and examined the most chondrichthyan species among the studies in the eastern
Mediterranean.
