The length–weight relationships (LWR) were estimated for five selected demersal marine fishes from the relatively undisturbed shelves and slopes of the Cabo Verde Islands. Most of them were of ecological and/or commercial interest. Occasional sampling was carried out during different fisheries research projects. LWRs were taken for the following bycatch species for which no such estimates exists in the science literature: Myroconger compressus, Synaphobranchus affinis, Physiculus cyanostrophus, Physiculus caboverdensis and Canthidermis maculata. Total length and fork length (to the nearest 0.1 cm) and total weight (to the nearest 0.1 g) were determined. The resulting length–weight equations are characterized by a high accompanying coefficient of correlation. The present data help improving the knowledge base needed for further fish biology studies and fisheries management.

佛得角群岛（中东部大西洋）的五种选定的深海鱼类的长度-重量关系

在佛得角群岛相对未受干扰的架子和斜坡上，对五种选定的深海鱼类进行了长度-重量关系（LWR）估算。其中大多数具有生态和/或商业意义。在不同的渔业研究项目中进行了偶然采样。采取为没有这种估计存在于科学文献以下兼捕品种轻水堆：软糯鳗科compressus，Synaphobranchus慈，Physiculus cyanostrophus，Physiculus caboverdensis和Canthidermis斑。确定总长度和货叉长度（精确到0.1厘米）和总重量（精确到0.1克）。由此产生的长度-重量方程式具有很高的伴随相关系数。本数据有助于进一步开展鱼类生物学研究和渔业管理所需的知识基础。
