Abstract:This study investigated the weight-length relationship, plasma biochemical and hematological parameters in Osteoglossum bicirrhosum from the Preto River, in the State of Amapá (Brazil). The weightlength relationship showed a negative allometric growth, with the value of the regression constant (b) equal to 2.539. The relative condition factor (1.00 ± 0.02) indicated good body conditions of fish in their natural environment. In the blood smears of O. bicirrhosum (616.2 ± 209.1 g), erythrocytes, thrombocytes and… Show more
