Journal Title: International Journal of Zoology and Animal Biology - Year 2018, Vol 1, Issue 4

Abstract

The length weight relationship of the starfish Pentaceraster regulus is done in this study. For that some stat fishes were collected and their length was recorded. A total of 764 specimen of starfish (Pentaceraster regulus) ranged from 31 to 184 mm in length were used for the study.
