  abstract = {{M}ore than 35,000 fishes have been sampled at the {S}eychelles cannery during 1987-2014 to collect morphometric data and information on the reproduction of the principal market tropical tunas har- vested in the {I}ndian {O}cean. {S}amples are largely predominated by large yellowfin tuna but sampling operations have included juveniles of yellowfin as well as skipjack and bigeye since {J}anuary 2014. {I}nformation on the dates of origin and fishing grounds has been retrieved from the purse seiner log- books for most fish sampled. {D}ata collected are useful for deriving conversion keys between lengths and weights, identifying spawning grounds and fishes in sexual activity, and monitoring long-term changes in condition. {A} generic database is currently in development to host different types of bio- logical data and provide free open-access to the data so as to promote comparative analyses between populations, species, and areas.},
