Summary Length–weight relationships ( LWR ) are presented for five fish species from the Restinga de Maricá, southeastern Brazil. Specimens were caught in pools and streams with different types of fishing gear: seine net, dip net, and sieve. The LWR s of three species are new for this region, and of Phalloptychus januarius are published for the first time.
