Abstract

Using length frequency information on Tenualosa ilisha catch in the coastal waters of Khouzestan Province (Abadan and Hendijan), we estimated growth parameters of the species. The data were composed of the total length measurement of around 10071 specimens caught in Abadan and 4032 specimens caught in Hendijan waters. The catches conducted monthly during the year 2005 using gill net with a mesh size of 8-9.5 centimeters.....
