Abstract
The ichthyology encompasses a vast array of
disciplines, each contributing to our understanding of the diverse aquatic
ecosystems that these creatures inhabit. Among these disciplines, morphometric
and meristic analyses stand out as fundamental tools for researchers seeking to
unravel the intricate details of fish morphology and taxonomy. This present
study carried out to analyze morphometric including total length (TL), fork
length (FL), standard length (SL), pre-anal length (PAL), pre-pectoral length
(PPL), pre-pelvic length (PVL), pre-dorsal length (PDL), head length (HL), body
depth (BD), eye diameter (ED) and pre-orbital length (POL); and meristic
characters including dorsal fin rays (DFR), anal fin rays (AFR), pectoral fin
rays (PCFR), caudal fin rays (CFR) and pelvic fin rays (PVFR) of Oreochromis
mossambicus from the Nira river of Baramati tehsil of Maharashtra.
