Abstract
A case of egg poisoning or ichthyootoxism is reported for the first time in the cyprinid fish species Barbus luteus from southern Iran. Symptoms appeared shortly after ingestion and, in one case, required stomach pumping to remove the toxic eggs. Victims suffered abdominal pain, vomiting for 6 hours, diarrhoea, intense thirst, cyanosis, and faintness, among milder symptoms.
