Abstract
Frequency distribution of carapace width, relative growth, sex ratio and fecundity of blue crab Portunus trituberculatus in Younggwang adjacent water were investigated. A total number of individuals collected for this study were 658(Males : 305 and females : 353). Water temperature and salinity of the study areas varied from 5.9 to $27.3^{\circ}C$ and 28.1 to 31.6 psu, respectively. The carapace length-width and carapace width-weight relationship was calculated and the equations obtained are; For males; CL = 1.3652CW + 22.495($R^2$=0.741), $TW=0.0068CW^{2.4001}$($R^2$=0.749), For females; CL = 1.3073 CW + 25.684($R^2$=0.791), $TW=0.0061CW^{2.4231}$($R^2$=0.801). The sex ratios(Males : females) for blue crab were 0.86 : 1. The value of correlations coefficient between total weight and fecundity of the blue crabs was higher that of between carapace width and fecundity.
