Summary Length‐weight relationships ( LWR s) were estimated for four cavefish species belonging to the genus Sinocyclocheilus (Cypriniformes: Cyprinidae) occurring in the Nanpanjiang River and Hongshuihe River, which constitute the upstream of the species, S. angularis , S. furcodorsalis , S. rhinocerous , and S. tileihornes , were collected from 2011 to 2017. The b values of LWR s of these four species ranged from 2.830 to 3.719 and the correlation coefficient values ( R 2 ) were high for all species. This is the first record of LWR s for cavefish species with the horn in FishBase database.
