Abstract
Head length, snout length, postorbital length, and eye diameter were measured in 209 brown croaker, Miichthys miiuy, ranging from 3.0 to 650.0 mm in total length (TL). All of the four head dimensions were regressed against the TL respectively and were increased linearly with the relative size of the head. The determination coefficients ($r^2$) ranged from 0.9823 to 0.9916, and all analysis of variance values were significant (P<0.0001). Those results suggest that these head dimensions may be useful indicators for detecting morphological deformities or for individual and population growth histories to aid in the successful rearing of brown croaker fingerlings.
