Abstract

It is known that bitterling larvae ofAcheilognathus andPseudoperilampus have minute scalelike tubercles on the skin surface (Uchida, 1937, 1939; Nakamura, 1969). Recently Fukuharaet al. (1982) described minute scaly tubercles distributed on the surface of the yolk sac in the larvae ofAcheilognathus. However, they did not mention the minute tubercles distributed on the skin surface of the whole body and morphological changes of the tubercles with growth of the larvae.
