Since fish have large amounts of long chain polyunsaturated fatty acids, they are considered a good source of food. In this study, fatty acid content and proximate composition of Silver Pomfret fish (Pampus argenteus) were investigated during winter and summer. For this purpose, the samples were collected from Bandar Lenge of Persian Gulf in 2016 and brought to the laboratory. The moisture, fat...

In this study, reproduction cycle of Silver pomfret (Pampus argenteus, Euphrasen, 1788) was examined in the coastal waters of the Persian Gulf waters (Qeshm Island). Sampling was done using gill and fixed net, in 5-10 m depth, during April 2011 to March 2012. At the end of sampling period, 474 fish were collected (292 male and 182 female).
