Deskripsi
The aim of this study was to record the length-weight relationship and condition factor of A. maculatus from Persian Gulf coastal waters. The specimens were collected on a monthly basis from April to March 2013. Overal 766 specimens were caught. Size and weight of collected fish ranged between 13/2-48 cm and 31.2-1820 gr. The Condition of the growth fish was allometrically negative with b value<3.0 (w=0/03L2/72) respectivly. Condition factor was estimated at 0.95. This study provides basic information for fishery biologists and managers.
