Abstract

This study describes biometric relationships of white shrimp L. vannamei for the Gulf of Tehuantepec. We examined 5,104 records of total
length and weights, and 4,890 records of abdominal
length and weight records. The specimens came
from artisanal catches in the lagoon systems and the high sea technical fishery, from different sampling campaigns. The established relationships were total length-total weight, total length-abdominal weight, abdominal length-total weight, abdominal lengthabdominal weight, total length-abdominal length, abdominal length- total length, total weight-abdominal weight, and abdominal weight-total weight. The αand β parameters were estimated through potential and linear functions, depending on the established type relationship.
