Abstract
Sequential cytological events in late spermatogenesis of LIza aurata were studied from the stage secondary spermatocytes to that of mature spermatozoa. Spermiogenesis involves preparatory morphological events followed by conspicuous modifications such as intracellular movements (diplosome and mitochondrion migration, spermatid lengthening, nuclear rotation) and structural changes (dense chromatin granules, increase in size of mitochondria, loss of cytoplasm). Mature spermatozoa, with a round nucleus and a pseudo-midpiece are of a primitive type, even compared with spermatozoa of other teleosis.
