The length-weight relationships and new total length are described for five fish species in the Pengxi River basin of the Three Gorges Reservoir. Fish were occasionally sampled from five sites between 2009 and 2014, using various gill nets (mesh size range 2–12 cm) and electrofishing. For four of the five species studied a new maximum total length not yet recorded in previous length-weight estimates have been found. These data will help to convert length data from field studies in the Three Gorges Reservoir into weight and biomass.
