1966. Length-weight relation of the summer flounder 

 Paralichthys dentatus (Linnaeus). U.S. Fish Wildl. 

 Serv., Spec. Sci. Rep. Fish. 531, 5 p. 



Length-weight equations of the form W = cL b in 

 which W is weight, L is length, and c and b are con- 

 stants, are given for summer flounder for each calen- 

 dar quarter. Weight for a given length varied seasonal- 

 ly. Males were slightly heavier than females of the 

 same length.

 were tagged on both coastal and offshore grounds in 

 1961-62.
