Frog somatic indices: Importance of considering allometric scaling, relation with body condition and seasonal variation in the frog Leptodactylus latrans

Snout-vent length (SVL) and liver, gonad, fat bodies and carcass weight data from 661 individual Leptodactylus latrans frogs collected over ten years in the Pampa Region of Argentina were analyzed to evaluate the best approach for expressing the corresponding somatic indices.
