Abstract

The parameters of the length-weight relationship of the form W = aLb are presented for 8 species of crustaceans caught along the Sığacık Bay, Aegean Sea coast of Turkey. Samples from commercial trawlers were taken during September 2005 to July 2006. The ‘b' value ranged between 0.568 and 3.156.
