Abstract
Length-weight (LWR) and length-length (LLR) relationships were estimated for 119 specimens of mosquitofish, Gambusia holbrooki, from Qom River, in the Namak Lake basin. The maximum total length and weight of the studied population were 5.8 cm and 3.4 g, respectively. The length-weight parameter b for this species was 3.05 with regression coefficients (r2) 0.85. The LLR were highly significant (r2 > 0.99). [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
