ABSTRACT The status of most fish stocks in Madagascar remains poorly documented. Given their importance for food security and livelihoods, it is necessary to define management measures with reliable data. This study applied a length‐based Bayesian biomass (LBB) estimation method for analysing the fisheries' representative length‐frequency data of seven
