Sektor perikanan di pulau tarakan menjadi sorotan utama karena hasil tangkapannya yang melimpah, terutama ikan pari yang sering ditangkap dengan alat tangkap rawai senggol. studi mengenai ciri-ciri morfometrik dan hubungan panjang-berat ikan pari yang tertangkap di perairan tarakan dilakukan melalui pendekatan deskriptif kuantitatif. metode penelitian ini melibatkan observasi langsung terhadap sampel ikan pari hasil tangkapan rawai senggol, dengan pengambilan sampel menggunakan metode purposive sampling. dalam pengukuran morfometrik, 24 karakteristik dan 11 karakteristik meristik diperhitungkan pada sampel ikan pari. hasil penelitian menunjukkan nilai koefisien b untuk regresi linier hubungan panjang total atau panjang standar dan berat, yang berbeda dari 3 (b ≠ 3), menunjukkan adanya allometrik. nilai b = 2,92 (ps-b) dan b = 2,67 (pt – b) menunjukkan allometrik negatif (b < 3), di mana pertumbuhan panjang lebih cepat daripada pertumbuhan berat. kesimpulan dari penelitian ini adalah bahwa pengukuran morfometrik dan meristik pada ikan pari yang tertangkap menggunakan rawai senggol di kota tarakan konsisten dengan karakteristik jenis ikan pari dari keluarga dasyatidae dan genus maculabatis serta memberikan pembandingan pola pertumbuhan ikan pari. kata kunci: ikan pari, morfometrik meristik, rawai senggol

The fisheries sector in tarakan city is a significant feature due to its considerable catch, particularly stingrays, which are frequently caught with senggol longline geat the research focused on the morphometric characteristics and length-weight correlation of stingrays caught in the waters surrounding tarakan. this research was conducted through a quantitative descriptive approach. the data collection method is based on direct observation of stingray samples caught by senger longline geat. the sampling method employs the purposive sampling method a total of 24 morphometric characterstics and 11 menatic characteristics were considered in the measurements of stingray samples. the results showed that the b coefficient values for linear regression of total length or standard length and weight relationships, which were distinct from 2 (b3) indicated the presence of allometrics. the values of h-2.92 (ps-b) and b 2.67 (pt-b) indicated negative allometrics (b3), where length growth is faster than weight growth. the the conclusion of the research is that the morphometric and menstic measurements of stingrays caught using jonglines in tarakan city are consistent with the characteristics of stingrays from the family dasyutichar and geme maculabatıs furthermore, it provided a comparison of stingray growth patterns. keywords: stingrays, characteristics, observation, senggol longline gear
