Branchioblastoma in Sardinella longiceps is
described in present study. Large
tumour masses were found under the operculum. 
Tumour is characterized by the multilobed and pale to red in color and
located in the brachial chamber of the fish. It varied in consistency from very
soft and triable to hard and also vary in size from 17 mm to 33 mm in diameter
and 18 to 44 mm in length.  Prevalence
study revealed that the higher incidence (0.046 %) of branchioblastoma was
reported in Cuddalore in pre-monsoon 2011 and lower (0.010 %) in Parangipettai
at summer 2010. Histopathologic examinations revealed that the chondroid tissue
with basophilic nodules and the fibrovascular stroma were present in the tumour
tissue.  Presence of dark stained nucleus
and also the granular cells were typical in the tumour tissue. This is the
first report of branchioblastoma in Indian marine waters.
