Abstract:
The length-weight relationships, condition factor and morphometrics of 10 species of
the genus Alburnoides are provided from Iranian inland water. The a values ranged
from 0.0037 (Alburnoides damghani) to 0.0128 (Alburnoides namaki), the b values
ranged from 2.87 (A. namaki) to 3.50 (A. damghani) and the coefficient of variation
(r2) ranged from 0.90 (Alburnoides samii) to 0.99 (A. namaki). Of these, Alburnoides
coadi, A. damghani and Alburnoides eichwaldii show positive allometric growth while
all the others are isometric growth. Mean condition factors (K) varied from 0.84
(Alburnoides holciki) to 1.37 (Alburnoides idignensis).
