- ItemLength-Weight Relationship and Condition Factor of Dawkinsia exclamatio (Pethiyagoda & Kottelat, 2005) from Kallada River of Kerala, India(Society of Fisheries Technologists (India)Cochin, 2013) Gladys, F.; Mercy, T. V. A.; Sajan, S.Dawkinsia exclamatio is endemic to Kerala region of the Western Ghats and to the best of our knowledge, there is no other reports on the growth studies on D. exclamatio. The results of the present study indicate that population of D. exclamatio in Kallada river follow an isometric growth pattern with ‘b’ values close to cubic law but there was no significant difference in the condition factor of D. exclamatio between length groups. This study adds basic information of this species, which may be useful in fisheries management and also in the conservation point of view.
