Abstract: Fecundity is reproductive capacity of a fish determined by the number of eggs stored in each spawning season and its knowledge is extremely important in successful management and exploitation of its fishery.
All together 10 specimen of Notopterus chitala were examined with a view to determine the average number of eggs produced by each species and also to find out the relationship between fecundity and variables such as total length, body weight, gonad length and gonad weight of the fish.
By using (Lacrane, 1951) equation follows the relationship between fecundity and variables are calculated.
The fecundity of Notopterus chitala is ranged from 133 to 1803.
Keywords: Fecundity, Notopterus chitala.
Title: Fecundity of Fish Notopterus chitala (Hamilton, 1822) from Godavari River, at Nanded (Maharashtra), India
