    Freshwater fish fauna in the three floodplain lakes in Agusan Marsh, northeast Mindanao, Philippines is mainly composed of cyprinids and clariids (21.43 %) followed by belontiids (14.28 %) and the rest of the fauna (7.14 %). Length-weight relationship parameters and condition factors were estimated for nine species. Estimates of the parame-ter b ranged from 2.814 and 3.649. A brief discussion of the utility of data such as pre-sented in this study is included.
