Abstract

The yellow clam Meretrix casta (Chemnitz, 1782) forms significant sustenance level fisheries as it is used for local consumption as well as for the lime industry. Length– weight relationships of M. casta from Chaliyar, Moorad estuaries (Kozhikode district), Kavvai estuary (Kasaragod district) and Mahe estuary, Mahe are reported as they are important inputs in fisheries management decisions.
