How does the pelvic girdle size of fish compare to those of land animals?

Fish do not have "pelvic girdles" per se. Land animals in large majority have skeletal structures in their hips known as pelvic bones. In humans, men have a narrow pelvic size and women have a wider pelvic size. This is because women bear babies. The circular shape of these pelvic bones are referred to as the "pelvic girdle". Fish, however, don't have hip bones. Living in the water has eliminated the need for the extra physical support those bones would give during pregnancy. Since fish range in size from near-microscopic up to the immense whale shark, the equivalent to the pelvic area would vary greatly in size. Mammals too, range widely in size so comparison is difficult without a more specific question.
