Length–Weight Relationships and Condition Factors of the Endemic Fish, Lagusia micracanthus (Bleeker 1860) in Ompo River, South Sulawesi, Indonesia
2026
Overview
Lagusia micracanthus , a species endemic to the freshwater systems of Sulawesi, Indonesia, was the subject of this study. The objective of the current research was to characterize the length-weight relationship (LWR) and condition factors of this fish. Sampling was conducted in the Ompo River, South Sulawesi, Indonesia, over a nine-month period from May 2018 to January 2019, utilizing electric fishing gear. Sample analysis was conducted in the fisheries laboratory, West Sulawesi University. The samples were measured with a digital calliper and dissected to determine their sex. A total of 146 specimens were collected, comprising 72 males and 74 females. Their total lengths (TL) ranged from 41.48 to 46.90 mm of total length (TL) and body weight (W) ranged from 1.60 to 1.80 g. The LWR of L. micracanthus in both rivers exhibited an isometric growth pattern (b = 3.0488, P <0.05). These findings indicate a high correlation in LWR (r > 95%). The relative condition factor was observed to range between 0.5423 and 1.6834, with females displaying better condition than males. The condition factor showed a decreasing trend as gonadal maturity progressed up to level III, followed by an increase at level IV maturity, and then a decrease again after spawning. This study offers fundamental data regarding the LWR and condition factors of L. micracanthus that can be used for fisheries management purposes.
