White-spotted spinefoot, Siganus canalicullatus (Park, 1797) is one of the most economically important
herbivorous fish captured along the coast of Selayar Islands. The present work was undertaken to assess the
length-weight relationship and Fulton's K condition factors of this fish caught in the waters of the northern coast
of Selayar Islands District. Those parameters were calculated separately for both sexes. A total of 498
specimens of S. canaliculatus consisting of 265 males and 233 females were randomly collected on a monthly
basis between January and June 2015 from local fishermen using gill nets of various mesh size in the coastal
waters of Desa Barat Lambongan, Kecamatan Bontomatene, northern part of Selayar Islands District. The fish
were brought to the laboratory and, after washing, their total length (L) was measured to the nearest 1 mm using
a fish measuring board and the total body weight (W) was recorded to the nearest 0.01 g using an electronic
balance. Each fish was then cut open and the sex were recorded. The length-weight relationships of males and
females can be expressed as log W = –4.4220 + 2.7772 log L for males, indicated hypoallometric growth
pattern; and log W = –4.6840 + 2.9022 log L for females, indicated isometric growth pattern. Overall, condition
factor values were higher in males than in females.
