Length-Weight Relationships for Ten Fish Species from Rivers in the Qinling Mountains, China.

Length-weight relationships (LWRs) were reported for ten fish species (Abbottina rivularis, Hemibarbus labeo, Hemibarbus maculatus, Onychostoma macrolepis, Opsariichthys bidens, Rhynchocypris lagowskii, Schizothorax prenanti, Sinibrama macrops, Zacco platypus, and Siniperca scherzeri). Fishes were collected from 62 sampling stations covering an area of ∼7000 km2 in the Qinling Mountains, characterized by unique fauna and distribution pattern, using gillnets and ground cages during June to December 2022. The intercept a ranged from 0.013 for S. prenanti to 0.060 for H. labeo, and the slope b ranged from 2.537 for H. labeo to 3.079 for Z. platypus. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
