Chhaya Khillare, Smita R. Sonawane

Abstract: Mystus armatus commonly called as katarana. The present study aims to analyze the morphometric character of fish. Length frequency distribution, length-length relationships are presented this work. Length- length relationships were estimated by regression equation method. The results indicated that length- length relationship (LLR) was highly co-related, r2>o.71 p< 0.001. All the morphometric relationships were linear, positive.
