Abstract
This study documents length-weight relationships (LWRs) for a total of 411 specimens belonging to 8 ponyfish species (Leiognathidae) mainly caught as bycatch using gill nets, pelagic and demersal trawls, by medium sized commercial vessels operated in the northern Arabian Sea. Significant length-weight relationships with high correlation coefficients were found for all species. The coefficient of determination r 2 value ranged from 0.90-0.99. The LWRs for Nuchequula blochii and Secutor interruptus are recorded for the first time and new maximum total length (26.5cm) for Karala daura is reported for the first time.
