Summary The length–weight relationships ( LWR s) of 13 species belong to three orders and four families from the Lijiang River, China. Samples were obtained between 2013 April and 2015 January using gillnets (25 × 12 m, mesh size 0.5 cm), trawl nets (50 × 12 m, mesh size 0.5 cm) and fishhooks (0.5 × 0.5 × 10 m, mesh size 0.5 cm mesh). Exponent b varied from 2.639 to 3.549 and r 2 values varied from .962 to .995.
