more than 32 alien (exotic) fish species belonging to 10 orders and 12 families (cyprinidae, gobiidae, salmonidae, anguilidae, mugilidae, centrarchidae, heteropneustidae, gasterosteidae, cichlidae, poecilidae, adrianichthyidae and pleuronectidae) were reported from iran of which 25 species are confirmed by specimens. some of the alien fishes (e.g., cyprinus carpio , carassius auratus , pesudora...

Mass mortality of stinging catfish, Heteropneustes fossilis, was observed in a fish farm of Kulgaria, Burdwan in West Bengal, India. The cumulative mortality rates reached up to 5% of the total fish in the farm per day. The clinical signs of the affected fish showed ulcers on the skin which gradually grew in size and progressed to form ulcerous dermatitis. Clinical signs of catfish experimental...

Effect of Bisphenol A on the hematological parameters total RBC count, total WBC count and hemoglobin content was assessed in Heteropneustes fossilis caught from wild. Behavioural changes were also monitored. It was found that 72 hour exposure of BPA at a concentration of 0.1g/L has lowered total RBC count and increased WBC count. Hemoglobin concentration in the blood also decreased exposure to...

The osteological and myological structures of the cephalic region and pectoral girdle of the Asiatic catŽ sh Heteropneustes fossilis are described and compared with those of several other catŽ shes, as the foundation for an analysis on the phylogeneticrelationshipsof the genusHeteropneustes. Our observation and comparisons support a close relationship betweenHeteropneustesand the clariid catŽ s...
