Studies regarding some morphological features of one-summer old catfish (Silurus glanis Linnaeus, 1758)

Abstract

The present paper investigates some representative metric characters (total length, standard bodily length, head length, maximum height and bodily circumference) of wels catfish (Silurus glanis) during their first growing summer. Biometric analyses were performed on 70 individuals and in the end the morphological characters were statistically processed. The experimental results showed a positive correlation between all body variables investigated.
