Establishing length–weight relationships (LWRs) is essential for conserving fish populations, especially where gaps hinder efforts, particularly crucial for elasmobranch populations in the Gulf of Guinea. This study presents LWRs established for six species of elasmobranchs landed by artisanal maritime fishing in Mayumba, located in the south of Gabon. The data were collected in May 2022 and between September 2022 and March 2023. This work provides the first LWRs for six elasmobranch species that have not yet been referenced at the regional level. One of these species, Paragaleus pectoralis, lacks referenced data on FishBase.
