  abstract = {{T}he species and size composition, relative abundance and biomass were studied in fish assemblages inhabiting various habitats of the {C}entral {D}elta of the {N}iger {R}iver with a special regard to young-of-the-year fish. {A} beach fry seine, fine-meshed gill net and fry traps were used when sampling the fish in floodplain sectors {O}uro {M}odi, {M}opti and {W}alado {D}ebo during {N}ovember 1990, i.e. during just decreasing flood and beginning downstream migration of juvenile fish. {T}he results of sampling were strongly dependent upon the types of habitat studied and fishing device used, as well as upon the day time during which the fishing action was performed. {A}ltogether, 38 taxa were registered. {T}he relative abundance and biomass (in terms of catch per one action of a 8-m beach seine) ranged 16 - 2,680 inds and 7 - 976 g, resp. {T}he maximun values of both variables were found on a littoral shallow section of the main channel of the {N}iger near the village of {B}arigondaga.
