85-92Present study aims at generating baseline data on biology of the most common species, Uranoscopus cognatus that includes length frequency distribution, Length-Weight Relationship (LWR), population parameters and various aspects of reproductive biology. These studies are based on 618 specimens of length range 51-189 mm TL collected during the period January 2015 to December 2016. The present study contributes to an improved understanding of biology of fish communities and the possible impact of fishing on the long-term sustainability of exploited ecosystems
