The length-weight relationships were determined for eight fish species [Zebrias zebra (Bloch, 1787); Zebrias quagga (Kaup, 1858); Amblyotrypauchen arctocephalus (Alcock, 1890); Gerres japonicus Bleeker, 1854; Apogonichthyoides pseudotaeniatus (Gon, 1986); Setipinna tenuifilis (Valenciennes, 1848); Bregmaceros rarisquamosus Munro, 1950; Bregmaceros nectabanus Whitley, 1941] belonging to six families. Fish samples were collected using gillnets (20 × 10 m, mesh size 0.5 cm) and cage net (200 × 10 × 15 cm, mesh size 0.5 cm) from mangroves of Guangdong, China. Samples were collected quarterly from June 2015 to March 2017.The allometric coefficient (b) of length-weight relationship varied from 2.76 for Zebrias zebra to 3.38 for Setipinna tenuifilis. Length-weight relationships for these 11 fish species were determined for the first time.
