Abstract

The present work  deals with some of the statistical relationships between various morphometric measurements of Channa orientalis. Studies on the statistical analysis of the morphometric characters and the relationship between total length is useful in determining the degree of an association of these body measurements. The morphometric study is important in fishery management. In the present study a straight line relationship was observed between various body measurements which suggest that the growth of the fish was isometric.
